Darn... Are there any plans at some point in the future to add a 
real -betterC sort of flag? It would be really really nice to be 
able to compile something like...

import std.bitmanip : bitfields;

struct Stuff {
   mixin(bitfields!(
         uint, "x",    2,
         int,  "y",    3,
         uint, "z",    2,
         bool, "flag", 1));
}

extern(C) void main() {
   Stuff x;
}

...just as in DMD or LDC.
