I've found out what caused my builds to break. The thing is that both

possible.

That may be a bug in the compiler. A symbol shouldn't be visible unless
e.g. publicly imported from an imported module (could that be the case)?

It's definitely a bug. Once an import is processed, the package is visible
globally as long as the parent package is accessible. This compiles:

touch dmd2/src/phobos/std/empty.d

a.d:
import std.stdio;

b.d:
import std.empty;
void main() { std.stdio.writeln("hi!"); }

Hm, this is important. But what is the contribution of a.d to the example? Do you compile it together with b.d?
