header/source swapping confused by .d files

It seems c::b tries to support also the "d" language when it comes to Swap Header/Source. The problem is that there is a rather common technique for Autodependencies as described here (http://scottmcpeak.com/autodepend/autodepend.html) which also does recommend using .d. And I suppose mainly for that reason there are c/c++ project out there using .d for that. And so when you try in a such a project (for example in Irrlicht) to use Swap Header/Source then you get the that .d file instead of the .cpp.

So, as nice as the D support is, it would be great if I could disable this somehow. Or at least make sure that I get the .cpp files first instead of .d files.

I'll talk in the meantime with the other Irrlicht dev's if we can rename the dependency files ;-)

Not sure since which version c::b does that, but happens at least with c::b svn 6088.
