Just tried something similar with new LDC Webassembly support

This is a prime example of stuff that should just workTM on
targets like that. I would like to submit some fixes but I
think there needs to be a more systematic approach on making
more core APIs modular.
Also, CI support to make sure core API compile on such targets
and there are no regressions. Webassembly would be an excellent
target as it is both constrained and portable.
To be fair, the WebAssembly support is still WIP and hasn't even
been released yet ;-)
Anyhow, here's how I think we can move forward for now:
1) Open the issue you experienced in the ldc issue tracker
2) Add more tests for -betterC to the test suites (and thus CI)
For (2) I have an "old" PR staling around
(https://github.com/dlang/phobos/pull/5952), which I should try
to rebase and get into Phobos. Then it should be easier to add
more -betterC tests for Phobos.
