can you post code somewhere? I try it and it works for me.

module main;

import std.stdio;
import config;

void main(string[] args)
{
        CONFIG = new Config();
        CONFIG.commands["bye"] = "yep";

        auto cmds = CONFIG.commands;
        cmds["list"] = "smt";

        writeln(CONFIG.commands);
        // Lets the user press <Return> before program returns
        stdin.readln();
}

module config;

class Config
{
        string[string] commands;
        this()
        {
                // Constructor code
        }
}

__gshared Config CONFIG;
