shared static this() { writeln("shared static this()"); }
shared static ~this() { writeln("shared static ~this()"); }

static ~this() { writeln("static ~this()"); }

Now suppose that my D shared library contains a class, rather 
that just module ctors/dtors, how do I go about creating an 
instance of that class and using its methods?

If you know the fully qualified name of the class and an interface
auto newClassIF = 
cast(interfacename)object.factory("libmodule.libclass");
