          Platform: All
        OS/Version: All
            Status: NEW
          Severity: major

When using templates defined in another module (via an alias), all the files
must be compiled together or link errors ensue. For example:

Compile together
$ dmd main.d mymodule.d && echo "ok"
ok

Compile separately
$ dmd -c main.d && dmd -c mymodule.d && dmd main.o mymodule.o
main.o:(.data._D78TypeInfo_S8mymodule40__T15TypedIdentifierVAyaa6_4d7954797065Z15TypedIdentifier6__initZ+0x40):
undefined reference to
`_D8mymodule40__T15TypedIdentifierVAyaa6_4d7954797065Z15TypedIdentifier8__xopCmpFKxS8mymodule40__T15TypedIdentifierVAyaa6_4d7954797065Z15TypedIdentifierKxS8mymodule40__T15TypedIdentifierVAyaa6_4d7954797065Z15TypedIdentifierZi'
main.o:(.data._D78TypeInfo_S8mymodule40__T15TypedIdentifierVAyaa6_4d7954797065Z15TypedIdentifier6__initZ+0x48):
undefined reference to
`_D8mymodule40__T15TypedIdentifierVAyaa6_4d7954797065Z15TypedIdentifier8toStringMxFZAya'
collect2: error: ld returned 1 exit status
--- errorlevel 1

This screws up our build system (which builds each file separately)
Here is the code for reproducing this error:

=============================================
main.d
=============================================
import mymodule;

void main()
{
    int dict[MyType];
    auto x = dict[MyType(0)];
}

=============================================
mymodule.d
=============================================
module mymodule;

import std.string;

struct TypedIdentifier(string NAME) {
    int value;

    this(int val) {
        value = val;
    }
    int opCmp(ref const int rhs) const {
        return value > rhs ? 1 : (value < rhs ? -1 : 0);
    }
    string toString() const {
        return format("%s(%s)", NAME, value);
    }
}

alias MyType = TypedIdentifier!"MyType";
