It's hard to say further without having the code you're 
compiling, but my best guess is that the C preprocessor is stuck 
on this or similar: 
https://clang.llvm.org/doxygen/____stddef__size__t_8h_source.html


```
/*
  * When -fbuiltin-headers-in-system-modules is set this is a 
non-modular header
  * and needs to behave as if it was textual.
  */
#if !defined(_SIZE_T) ||                                          
              \
     (__has_feature(modules) && 
!__building_module(_Builtin_stddef))
#define _SIZE_T
```

Without more information I can't give any specific advice, but 
the answer may be to pass something to the preprocessor using -P 
in your compilation command as described here: 
https://dlang.org/spec/importc.html#auto-cpp

As a workaround you could try to add something like this before 
any includes:
```
#define __building_module(name) 0
```
