module foo;

struct S
{
    private void m() { }
}
-----

-----
module test;

import foo;

void main()
{
    static if (__traits(getProtection, S.m != "private"))
    {
        // field might be accessible
    }
}
-----

$ dmd test.d
> test.d(7): Error: struct foo.S member m is not accessible

There's not much point in having this trait if it fails to compile due to accessibility problems. The trait has only one purpose and it's to return a string representation of a symbol's protection. There's nothing damaging about allowing it access to all fields, so I think the above should work.

You was created an another issue:
http://d.puremagic.com/issues/show_bug.cgi?id=9546
In #9546 same tests was passed.

>static assert(__traits(getProtection, s.privA) == "private");
>static assert(__traits(getProtection, s.protA) == "protected");
>static assert(__traits(getProtection, s.packA) == "package");

God what a silly typo:

static if (__traits(getProtection, S.m != "private"))

The parenthesis is wrong, it should be:

static if (__traits(getProtection, S.m) != "private")
