Hi,

I found a small bug in gdc.

// auto_gen_ctor.d

class Base {
    this() {}
}
class Derived : Base {
private:
    // constructor will be generate here, so it is private.
}

If I compile the above code and check symbol in the following way:

gdc -c auto_gen_ctor.d
nm auto_gen_ctor.o | grep _ctor

I get the following result:

00000000 T _D8override4Base5_ctorFZC8override4Base
00000023 t _D8override7Derived5_ctorFZC8override7Derived

I think 00000023 should be 'T' not 't'. This means that the
constructor of Derived is private. So I cannot link the program if I
use the constructor of Derived in another file.

Thanks.  I'm posting this in D.bugs since it will also affect DMD 0.106.
