I can't reproduce the problem on 2.055head on 32 bit Windows.
DMD 64 bit is relatively recent, it contains several bugs still.

I don't understand.

Maybe you are doing nothing wrong.

Creating the project of your life with 64 bit DMD is a not so good idea.
Currently DMD 32 bit is more reliable if you want to create a large project.

I suggest to use D for less critical projects, and to help its debugging and improvement (in Bugzilla or even in GitHub). And to use C++/Java/C#/Python/etc for your life projects.
