I apologize for not making it clear. I was talking about the

Oddly enough I asked this because I was working on something
and was able to call the private constructor from another
module, but then I created the run.dlang.io snippet to demo my
problem.
Right. Reduced your example to this:
module bar;
struct S() {
private this()(int n) {}
}
module foo;
unittest {
import bar;
auto a = S!()(3);
}
This is apparently a known issue:

which is basically just a special case of this issue:
