Hello,

We have discovered a possible bug which does not allow access of private 
  declared members in the same module when using template classes.

In the next example the class "Baz" works fine. If we take the same 
thing however, and make a template class of it "Bar", the compiler fails 
to compile, complaining about Bar.doSomething() being private.

According to the D-specs it should be accessible in the same module?

<code>
class Bar(Type)
{
     this()
     {
     }

     private void doSomething()
     {
     }
}

class Baz
{
     this()
     {
     }

     private void doSomething()
     {
     }
}

void main()
{
     //this is ok
     Baz a = new Baz();
     a.doSomething();

     //this fails
     Bar!(int) b = new Bar!(int)();
     b.doSomething();
}
</code>
