When I compile the code above normal to an a.out binary it runs
like expected. But running it with shebang it does nothing. No
output, especially no error message. Nothing.

What do I wrong?

gdc just compiles the program to a.out. It doesn't run the
resulting executable. You need to use something like rdmd instead
of gdc. rdmd compiles to some temporary location and then runs
the executable.

Can compiler switches be used with the shebang notation? If yes, there
is certainly a GDC flag (-run?) that tells it to run the generated
executable.

it's possible to use switches, but GDC is not fitted for such usage
anyway. it will not automatically compile included modules, it will not
automatically put the binary in predefined place and so on. ah, dmd is
not suitable for such usage too, that's why we have rdmd.

rdmd can be adapted to use GDC (if compiled with GDC, rdmd will use
gdmd instead of dmd), but dmd is faster and the quality of generated
code is not so important in scripts.
