I believe this has to be fixed in the libraries that define constants as
'extern (Windows)'.  Either don't use 'extern (Windows):', or use enums instead
for manifest constants.  If the whole file is 'extern (Windows):', another
option might be to put the constants in 'extern (D)' blocks.

'extern (Windows)' gives the variables C name mangling.  Which I believe is
correct.  Also see issue 1306.
