If you can build for 64 do so.
That will fix it until somebody or you solve it from the import libs.

Possible to just write a C program that wraps the actual kernel functions that I need and then just import those from the C lib?

The kernel32 lib has them, the headers don't.

You can define the missing functions yourselves and call them:

---
import core.sys.windows.windows;

extern(Windows)
HANDLE CreateToolhelp32Snapshot(
 DWORD dwFlags,
 DWORD th32ProcessID
);

void main() {
	CreateToolhelp32Snapshot(0, 0);
}
---


CreateProcess is there but might not be aliased for ascii vs unicode. Try CreateProcessA or CreateProcessW in your code.
