Your bug is part of a series of regressions introduced with the new
Import lookup (see my post in "[dmd-beta] D2 2.058 beta").
Selective imports are bound into the current namespace.
This means they are resolved before import lookup kicks in and
it also means that they overload against your modules symbols (if  
overloadable).
