And the answer:

So it looks like it's a DMD bug and we should not include that module.

oh, i see, i wasn't thought about moduleinfo and other data.

sorry, i can't see how this bug is related to non-inclusion. actually, it's about the exact opposite!

p.s. it it even necessary to generate moduleinfo for modules without initializers and without complex data structures with references?

The point is, it generates moduleinfo needlessly.

A good point. It certainly would make this less of an issue.
