dmd: Module X conflicts with itself (Was: Re: RDMD on Windows)

[Andrej Mitrovic]

Man, I have no idea what's going on. I was trying out building with xfbuild, and I keep getting different results on each attempted build:

Attempt 1:
C:\next>xfbuild myproject.d myfolder\another.d +full +o=main
Build failed: myfolder/another.obj: The system cannot find the file specified.

Attempt 2:
C:\next>xfbuild myproject.d myfolder\another.d +full +o=main
Error: Error writing file 'myfolder\another.obj'

2010-08-22 00:29:36,025 Info [root] - Build failed: 'dmd @xfbuild.a27c00.rsp' returned 1
.

abnormal program termination

Attempt 3:
C:\next>xfbuild myproject.d myfolder\another.d +full +o=main
2010-08-22 00:29:37,240 Info [root] - Build failed: myfolder/another.obj: The process ca
nnot access the file because it is being used by another process.

abnormal program termination

Attempt 4:
C:\next>xfbuild myproject.d myfolder\another.d +full +o=main
Error: Error writing file 'myfolder\another.obj'

2010-08-22 00:29:38,214 Info [root] - Build failed: 'dmd @xfbuild.a27a00.rsp' returned 1
.

abnormal program termination

Attempt 5, *now* it works:
C:\next>xfbuild myproject.d myfolder\another.d +full +o=main

Attempt 6:
C:\next>xfbuild myproject.d myfolder\another.d +full +o=main

Geeeeeeeeeeeeeeez.. What am I supposed to use to compile the files? DSSS doesn't work, xfbuild seems broken most of the time, and I can't even use DMD with a simple directory structure like this:

root\myproject.d
root\myfolder\another.d

myproject.d:
module myproject;

import myfolder.another;

void main()
{
}


another.d:
module another;

void fun(long n)
{
}

C:\test>dmd -ofmain.exe myproject.d myfolder\another.d
myproject.d(3): Error: module another from file myfolder\another.d conflicts with another module another from file myfolder\another.d

I'll do a reinstall of DMD, maybe my system is broken or something.
