It seems errors are gagged at this point in "Expression *Type::getProperty(Loc
loc, Identifier *ident)" in file mtype.c:

if (this != Type::terror)
{
    assert(global.gag);  // << passes

    if (s)
        error(loc, "no property '%s' for type '%s', did you mean '%s'?",
ident->toChars(), toChars(), s->toChars());
    else
        error(loc, "no property '%s' for type '%s'", ident->toChars(),
toChars());
}
