By "D65" I guess you mean D65 white point, not D65 spectrum. The most
critical aspect is the UV content of the illuminant spectrum used in
the calculations. That has to be approximately right in order for FWA
compensation to work.

That is what illumread is for:

If the D65 is a conventional fluorescent lamp (i.e. not a recent one
specifically
manufactured for proofing and having extra UV ouput), it is likely to
be quite low in UV content.
