          Issue ID: 15395
           Summary: unittest can't access symbol of visibility package
           Product: D
           Version: D2
          Hardware: x86_64
                OS: Windows
            Status: NEW
          Severity: normal
          Priority: P1
         Component: dmd
          Assignee: nobody puremagic.com
          Reporter: andre s-e-a-p.de

For following coding there is an error during compilation:

  module utils;

  package string toBulkString(string s)
  {
      import std.string: format;
      return "$%s\r\n%s\r\n".format(s.length, s);
  }

  unittest
  {
      string actual = "foobar".toBulkString();
      //...
  }

 source\utils.d(11,39): Error: function utils.toBulkString is not accessible
from module utils


The error disappears if I change the visibility attribute from package to
private.
