Yes, they are shown in the project fine. It's just as if the are 
not included in the compilation process at all.

LDC has some .di files that are imported. I added the .di files 
to the project(for dcompute) but the compiler would complain that 
the modules are missing... if I renamed them to .d everything 
would work. (either extension would show up in D)

This might be an issue with the compiler though so not a big 
deal, probably against on my end.

Thanks.
