Yeah, there's definitely a problem there.
It's possible that the compiler is acting like this: Because there is
already my_module.d on the command line, it assumes that main's 'import
my_module' must mean that file. Because there is no such file in the
local directory, it errors out by using a generic error message
function, which does not explain the situation well.
I made that all up but I bet it's something like that. :)
