Are the *.di generated automatically, or are they written by
hand? The compiler is known [0] to have problems with header
(*.di) generation, and IIRC there were some fixes recently [1]
that may have caused this problem. On the other hand there are
no known issues with importing *.di, since it works the same as
as improting plain *.d files (*.di is only a convention - you
can functions without bodies or vice versa in both).
Looking at https://pastebin.com/UgWNqZzh it seems that the
problem shouldn't be hard to solve, since it's only a syntax
error. I suggest examining and manually editing
../dwt/imp/org/eclipse/swt/accessibility/Accessible.di to
narrow down the problem.
I have no knowledge of DWT, so sorry if this is not very
helpful.

Thank you for your feedback and for the links to the bug reports!
The *.di files are generated by DMD when building the *.di files,
not by hand.
I makes sense that it is an issue with DMD creating the *.di
files, versus importing.
Understood about editing the *.di files manually, but they are
intended to be rebuilt depending on platform and arch.
However, manually editing the *.d file is an option. I'm not
sure if I have the technical knowledge to do this, but I'll
consider after reviewing any other feedback.
