I just fixed a bug in my personal D hobby project. After pushing
everything to github, I noticed that it fails to link with the
latest LDC on MacOS. The error I'm getting is thus:
```
ld: warning: alignment (1) of atom 'anon' is too small and may
result in unaligned pointers
ld: warning: pointer not aligned at address 0x3D2C9 ('anon' +
4809 from

ld: unaligned pointer(s) for architecture x86_64

/Users/runner/hostedtoolcache/dc/ldc2-1.30.0/x64/ldc2-1.30.0-os
-universal/bin/ldc2 failed with exit code 1.
```
This only happens when building the project as a shared library.
It builds perfectly fine as a static library. Any solutions?
Thanks in advance.
