The issue thread is here: https://github.com/ldc-developers/ldc/issues/2390. Ah, that might be the reason. I am not using LTO. You might want to try a newer version of LDC as well since 1.5 is quite old now. I switched to LDC 1.12.0. The problem remains with LTO and static builds on Ubuntu 14.04. Ubuntu 16.04 is required, at least with LTO of druntime/phobos. The good news on this front is that the regularly updated dlang2 docker images work fine with LTO on druntime/phobos (using the LTO build support available in LDC 1.9.0). Examples of travis-ci setups for both dlanguage and dlang2 docker images are available on the tsv-utils travis config: https://github.com/eBay/tsv-utils/blob/master/.travis.yml. Look for the DOCKERSPECIAL environment variables.

I'm using dlanguage/ldc. The reason for that choice was because it was what was available when I put the travis build together. As you mentioned, it hasn't been updated in a while. I'm still producing this build with an older ldc version, but when I move to a more current version I'll have to switch to a different docker image. My travis config is here: https://github.com/eBay/tsv-utils/blob/master/.travis.yml. Look for the sections referencing the DOCKERSPECIAL environment variable.
