[BUG, with testcase] problem with type system, __traits accross static libraries

It's going to be long as I'm going to post all the code...
Basically there is a bug in the type system or __traits when the program is 
split in static lib and exe (as opposed to all in one).

My test case:
- I have a all in one console application which output "true true"
- I have a project with the exact same code split into a static lib and an 
exe and it output "false false"

The bug is that the output is different!

=== first the all in one, outputing "true, true" =========
module main;

import std.variant;
import std.stdio;
import std.metastrings : Format;
import std.traits;

public mixin template property(T, string name)
{
    mixin(Format!("private T _%s;
                  @property public T %s() { return _%s; }
                  @property public void %s(T value) { _%s = value; }", name,
name, name, name, name));
}

interface IInter
{
}

class Foo : IInter
{
    static this()
    {
        Compiled!(Foo, "FP");
        Compiled!(Foo, "Subfoo");
    }

    @property public Foo FP() { return new Foo(); }
    @property public void FP(Foo f) { }

    mixin property!(Foo, "Subfoo");
}

int main(string[] argv)
{
    return 0;
}
void Compiled(T, string memberName)()
{
    T t;
    writeln(mixin( "__traits(compiles, t." ~memberName ~" = (" 
~typeof(__traits(getMember, T, memberName)).stringof  ~").init)" ));
}
==============================================


now the splitted program, outputting "false, false"
whereas it should output "true, true" just like above, shouldn't it!?!

===== lib.d ====
module lib;

import std.variant;
import std.stdio;
import std.metastrings : Format;
import std.traits;

public mixin template property(T, string name)
{
    mixin(Format!("private T _%s;
                  @property public T %s() { return _%s; }
                  @property public void %s(T value) { _%s = value; }", name, 
name, name, name, name));
}

interface IInter
{
}

void Compiled(T, string memberName)()
{
    T t;
    writeln(mixin( "__traits(compiles, t." ~memberName ~" = " 
~typeof(__traits(getMember, T, memberName)).stringof  ~").init" ));
}
====== main.d =====
module main;

import lib;

class Foo : IInter
{
    static this()
    {
        Compiled!(Foo, "FP");
        Compiled!(Foo, "Subfoo");
    }

    @property public Foo FP() { return new Foo(); }
    @property public void FP(Foo f) { }

    mixin property!(Foo, "Subfoo");
}

int main(string[] argv)
{
    return 0;
}
===================== buildrun.bat =========
dmd -lib -g -debug -X -of"lib1.lib" lib.d
dmd -g -debug -X main.d lib1.lib
main
====================================
