FT_Init_FreeType must be read at compile time, because
freeType is a module level variable, and initializers for
module variables must be static values. The initializer is run
through CTFE (Compile Time Function Evaluation).
Put the initialization/assignment in a function and it should
work. That function can be a static constructor or the main
function:

Yes, I see. I made a mistake. I need to initialize it
elsewhere. It was quite confusing.
Thanks.
I Just noticed this trick you posted, that's interesting. Of
course I couldn't get it working without the void to discard the
initialization;
FreeType freeType = void; /* 'void' prevents default
initialization */
static this() {freeType = FreeType.initialise();} /* should work
*/
