I got same error when tried compile almost empty app based on hunt-database. Is there any workaround/solution?
P.S. Windows

You're probably best off switching to a 64 bit compile with -m64.

Sorry I couldn't really fix it.

This needs to be addressed. Getting same issue with gtkD.

\Libs\omf\gtkd.lib(Binding)
Error 168: >64K Global Types

This is when trying to build gtkD with debugs.

Clearly it is a limit issue so it should be an easy fix. It's happening x86 and not x64. It happens when I tried to use the lib in my app. I cannot use x64.

@Aphexus you can use normal mscoff linking for 32-bit too. With the newest version of dub (2.086), it's even the default.
