Some more tests with a simple example:

import std.stdio;

void main() {
   writeln("hello world!" ~ import("signature.h"));
}

And now adding the explicit path:

mac-pro:d-language robby$ dmd -v -J/Volumes/Daten/Windows/d/develop/d-language hello.d

...

It works. This made me suspicous what's goind on. The /Volumes/Daten/... device is not the boot device nor the one where my ~home directory is located. So, tried it there:

mac-pro:tmp robby$ pwd
/Users/robby/tmp

mac-pro:tmp robby$ dmd -v -J. hello.d
binary    dmd
version   v2.068.0
config    /usr/local/bin/dmd.conf
parse     hello
importall hello
import    object        (/Library/D/dmd/src/druntime/import/object.d)
import    std.stdio     (/Library/D/dmd/src/phobos/std/stdio.d)
import core.stdc.stdio (/Library/D/dmd/src/druntime/import/core/stdc/stdio.d) import core.stdc.config (/Library/D/dmd/src/druntime/import/core/stdc/config.d) import core.stdc.stdarg (/Library/D/dmd/src/druntime/import/core/stdc/stdarg.d) import core.stdc.stdlib (/Library/D/dmd/src/druntime/import/core/stdc/stdlib.d) import core.stdc.stddef (/Library/D/dmd/src/druntime/import/core/stdc/stddef.d) import core.stdc.stdint (/Library/D/dmd/src/druntime/import/core/stdc/stdint.d) import core.stdc.signal (/Library/D/dmd/src/druntime/import/core/stdc/signal.d) import core.stdc.wchar_ (/Library/D/dmd/src/druntime/import/core/stdc/wchar_.d)
import    core.stdc.time        
(/Library/D/dmd/src/druntime/import/core/stdc/time.d)
import core.sys.posix.sys.types (/Library/D/dmd/src/druntime/import/core/sys/posix/sys/types.d) import core.sys.posix.config (/Library/D/dmd/src/druntime/import/core/sys/posix/config.d)
import    std.typecons  (/Library/D/dmd/src/phobos/std/typecons.d)
import    std.traits    (/Library/D/dmd/src/phobos/std/traits.d)
import    std.typetuple (/Library/D/dmd/src/phobos/std/typetuple.d)
import    std.meta      (/Library/D/dmd/src/phobos/std/meta.d)
import    std.stdiobase (/Library/D/dmd/src/phobos/std/stdiobase.d)
import std.range.primitives (/Library/D/dmd/src/phobos/std/range/primitives.d)
semantic  hello
import core.stdc.errno (/Library/D/dmd/src/druntime/import/core/stdc/errno.d)
entry     main          hello.d
semantic2 hello
semantic3 hello
file      signature.h   (/Users/robby/tmp/signature.h)


This works too. So, it has to do with some access depending which device it's running on. I have these:

mac-pro:tmp robby$ diskutil list
/dev/disk0
  #:                       TYPE NAME                    SIZE       IDENTIFIER
  0:      GUID_partition_scheme                        *256.1 GB   disk0
  1:                        EFI EFI                     209.7 MB   disk0s1
  2:                  Apple_HFS System                  254.6 GB   disk0s2
  3:                 Apple_Boot Recovery HD             1.0 GB     disk0s3
/dev/disk1
  #:                       TYPE NAME                    SIZE       IDENTIFIER
  0:      GUID_partition_scheme                        *9.0 TB     disk1
  1:                        EFI EFI                     209.7 MB   disk1s1
  2:                  Apple_HFS Daten                   9.0 TB     disk1s2

As you can see /dev/disk0 seems to work /dev/disk1 not. Any idea how this can influence the -J switch?
