digitalmars.D.learn - Strange problem with structure

module basis;
import std.stdio;
import std.math;
import std.string; 
import std.process;

struct SCoordinate{
  int max;
  int min;
}

[code_code_code_code_code_code_code]
and following errors:
OPTLINK (R) for Win32  Release 8.00.1

source\hiddenLine.obj(hiddenLine) 
 Error 42: Symbol Undefined _D5basis11SCoordinate3maxMFZl
source\hiddenLine.obj(hiddenLine) 
 Error 42: Symbol Undefined _D5basis11SCoordinate3minMFZl

It looks like linker treats min and max like external symbols, but why?

Looks like compiler is looking for these functions:
long basis.SCoordinate.min()
long basis.SCoordinate.max()

but can't find their implementation. What code in module "hiddenLine" uses  
min/max and how?

What version of DMD do you use? Could you post the code that makes this  
happen so that we could reproduce it?
