The most obvious example is object.Object: _D6Object6__initZ _D6Object6__vtblZ _D6Object7__ClassZ _D6object6Object5opCmpMFC6ObjectZi _D6object6Object8opEqualsMFC6ObjectZi _D6object6Object6toHashMFZk [...] affected classes: ModuleInfo (std.moduleinit.ModuleInfo) Object (object.Object) Exception (object.Exception) ClassInfo (object.ClassInfo) TypeInfo (object.TypeInfo)

This is by design.

(In reply to comment #1) > This is by design. Why _D6Object7__ClassZ instead of _D6object6Object7__ClassZ?

They are special classes - it may be worthwhile to split or move them into different modules, and I don't want to break binary compatibility doing so.
