 ok, this was just weird, turns out if I have a file called object.d in the
 same directory as another .d file which I am trying to compile I get a
 weird error message:

It's best to consider the module name 'object' as reserved, since the
compiler has a lot of exact expectations for its contents!

I figured that was the case. Can we get some sort of error so this does 
not happen, i.e. "module name 'object' reserved".
