Describe the bug

While using TailwindCSS with the :global() directive and dark mode variants (dark:) in Svelte 5, I encountered an issue where the generated CSS selectors are incorrect. Instead of generating :global(div:where(...)), it produces :global(div):where(...), causing unexpected behavior and warnings.

Steps to Reproduce:

  1. Created a new Svelte 5 project with TailwindCSS.
  2. In app.html I added the data-color-theme attribute:
<body data-sveltekit-preload-data="hover" data-color-theme="dark">
	<div style="display: contents">%sveltekit.body%</div>
</body>
  1. Then, the component looks like this:
<div class="markdown">
  {@html `<div>
		<code>All background colors are expected to be blue, red should not be visible</code>
	</div>`}
</div>

<style lang="postcss">
  .markdown {
    :global(div) {
      @apply bg-red-500 p-10;

      /* This line generates incorrect CSS which breaks styling and throws warnings during build */
      @apply dark:bg-blue-500;
    }

    /* WORKAROUND: These styles work as expected */
    :global(code:where([data-color-theme="dark"], [data-color-theme="dark"] *)) {
      @apply bg-blue-500;
    }
  }
</style>
  1. Build the project using Svelte 5's build process.

Expected Behavior:
The :global() directive should generate CSS selectors with the correct syntax, i.e., :global(div:where(...)).

Actual Behavior:
The generated CSS selector is incorrect:

:global(div):where([data-color-theme="dark"], [data-color-theme="dark"] *)

This incorrect selector causes unexpected behavior and generates warnings during the build process.

Unused CSS selector ":global(div):where([data-color-theme="dark"], [data-color-theme="dark"] *)"

Additional Information:
I'm currently migrating a project from Svelte 4 to Svelte 5 which has this pattern and worked fine before the migration.

Looks like this bug is closely related to this one: #10513
I tried some of the suggestions on that issue but couldn't solve the problem on my end.

Here's a workaround for using dark: with components defined in tailwind.config.js:

const config = {
  // ...
  plugins: [
    function ({ addComponents }) {
      addComponents({
        '.confirm-deletion': {
          '@apply bg-gradient-to-r from-transparent to-red-50': {},
          
          // WORKAROUND
          '&:global(:where([data-color-theme="dark"], [data-color-theme="dark"] *))': {
            '@apply bg-gradient-to-r from-transparent to-red-900': {}
          }
        },
      });
    },
    require('tailwind-scrollbar')
  ]
};
