I have recently reinstalled a fresh version of Windows 10. I

I get this error at the linking phase :
Native PDB Error: The entry already exists.  The specified 
module already exists

I made a simplified project that gets the same error :

import imageformats;
import derelict.glfw3;

void main() {
    IFImage i0;
}

and dub.json :
"dependencies": {
        "derelict-glfw3": "4.0.0-beta.1",
        "imageformats": "~>7.0.0"
}

Compiling for 32-bit works.
Compiling for 64-bit gives that error : dub --arch=x86_64
Changing imageformats version to 5.2.0 compiles but any higher 
doesn't.
I tried compiling the code with and without admin privileges 
but it doesn't do anything.
I know that PDB is used for debugging but I don't understand 
this error.
Any ideas?

for others who come across this (because this is what you find if 
you google this error):

I haven't found any solution or reason yet, but you can compile 
in release mode (--build=release for dub) to work around this 
issue
