DMD uses different linkers depending on the platform. For the compiler, -L means 'pass this command to the linker.' In this case, that just also happens to be -L, which is understood by ld (the system linker) as the flag to set the library path. If you were using the Microsoft linker on Windows, it would be -L/LIBPATH:dir. If you were manually linking with libevent on Mac or Linux, you would pass -L-levent, and so on.
Cool! Thanks a lot!
