Oh, and here's the snippet from the offending file
(core/sys/posix/sys/select.di):
------SNIP------
private
{
alias c_long __fd_mask;
enum uint __NFDBITS = 8 * __fd_mask.sizeof;
extern (D) auto __FDELT(int d); // this is line
25
extern (D) auto __FDMASK(int d); // this is line
27
}
------SNIP------
Looks like the problem is caused by the auto, perhaps?
