------- Comment #6 from smjg at iname.com  2007-10-21 11:30 -------
Minimal testcase:

----- bz1392a.d -----
import bz1392b;

Foo!(char)* x;
----- bz1392b.d -----
import bz1392a;

class Foo(T) {}
----------

Success:
dmd bz1392a.d
dmd bz1392a.d bz1392b.d

Failure:
dmd bz1392b.d
dmd bz1392b.d bz1392a.d

bz1392a.d(3): template instance forward reference to template declaration
Foo(T)
bz1392a.d(3): Error: Foo!(char) is used as a type
