This line:

      mixin("alias tmp = " ~ s ~ ";");

There's no mention of Symbol in there. If you change it to this:

      mixin("alias tmp = Symbol" ~ s ~ ";");

then suddenly things work.

What?

a dot is missing, but essentially, Simen found it :)

Line 20 in https://run.dlang.io/is/OGHJYX should be:

mixin("alias tmp = Symbol." ~ s ~ ";");

Whoops I didn't get it.
Thank you both.

Why didn't that return any error, anyway?

Because:
mixin("alias tmp = " ~ s ~ ";");

Translates to:

alias tmp = i;

And i will be the global i.
