Another variation:

union S
{
    float[2] a;
    struct
    {
        union { float i = 1; float x; }
        union { float j = 2; float y; }
    }
}

$ dmd bar.d -c
bar.d(2): Error: union bar.S overlapping initialization for struct S.i
bar.d(2): Error: union bar.S overlapping initialization for struct S.j

If 'a' is moved below the anonymous struct it works. The spec does not mention
this special case as far as I can tell. Explicit initialization of aggregate
fields inside anonymous struct/union combinations should be documented.
