1) it is not new, it is the old one that needs fixing : 
http://dlang.org/attribute.html#ProtectionAttribute

2) it work just fine in Linux (dlopen) because all symbols are 
exported there by default. Proper symbol visibility definition is 
still needed for any cross-platform implementation (and for some 
optimization potential).

Right now on Linux naive dlopen + calling Phobos stdio function 
from shared lib works on 2.064beta so you can be calm about that 
part.
