String at compile time seem to be represented as dchar.   Also, the 
loop on bitsPerChar won't work at compile time right now.     I think 	 
maskTmp = cast(T)((1 << bitsPerChar) - 1);
 does the same thing though.

Fails with some weird internal DMD error now though while trying to 
instantiate the enum.   Maybe time for a bug report?
