I had the same problem with X11 (as mentioned above) i just 
copied the repo from deimos and put it on the dub repository 
myself. I will only remove it if the official one is moved to 
there.

I would try and contact the maintainers on github, etc. and ask 
for them to be placed in the dub repository. If you have no luck 
with that just do it yourself like i did with the x11 repo.

stc.c.windows.windows is meant to be used by developers and can 
be contributed to if something is missing.

Stuff under the core module: core.sys.windows.windows is usually 
for internal usage but there's no reason why it can't be utilised 
by developers. If it's public, use it.
