Using export(identifier) is not going to be reliable, since chances of clashes are high. E.g. if libFoo uses export(Foo) and libBar also uses export(Foo), you won't be able to distinguish between the two. Instead I think 'identifier' should be a module name. However, I have a better idea. Why not only introduce compiler switches that are based on module names rather than having to annotate what export does in code? For example: dmd -m64 -export libB.* -import libA.* -of"libB.dll" dllmain.d libB.d -L/DLL -L/IMPLIB:"libB.lib" -LlibA.lib "-export libB.*" means all modules and subpackages of the libB package should be exported, whereas "-import libA.*" means the opposite for libA. This way you don't have to edit any existing code.
