They're different symbols because they're in different modules. The module and package name is part of the symbol name.

Ok, that's what I assumed too.

 Just import A.b in A.a.

Won't help. I just commented the lines DStep generated for forward referenced structs.

This compiles with dmd v2.085.1:

$ cat A/a.d
module A.a;
import A.b;

$ cat A/b.d
module A.b;
struct myStruct {
   int i;
}

$ cat A/c.d
module A.c;
import A.a;
import A.b;

struct myOtherStruct {
   myStruct ms;
}

void main ()
{
   import std.stdio;
   myOtherStruct mos;
   mos.writeln;
}
