There was an upstream bug in lld-link that breaks a common pattern with
pragma(linkerDirective).

The new version of lld-link with version 14 fixes the issue. I tried dropping the new exes right into my dmd install and it appears to Just Work, fixing this bug without causing other regressions.

I recommend updating the bundled version ASAP.
