I think that is desired behaviour. Templates are generally instantiated in the
scope they are declared in, consider:

module A;
void foo(T)() { writefln(); }
--
import A;
import std.stdio;
void main() { foo!(void)(); }

will also fail to compile. 

The appearance of a string mixin doesn't change that behaviour. You can use
template mixins to instantiate templates in a different context.
