wstring always 2-byte aligned?

I found a user comment on an MDSN Windows API reference page (Which I've
since lost, but I think it was somewhere in the Registry section.) that
claims that the Unicode-taking functions in the Windows API (or at least
some of them) require the unicode strings to be aligned on a two-byte
boundary, otherwise they might not work.
Do D's wstrings (in both D1 and D2) always follow this two-byte alignment
(provided that you're not doing any packed-alignment structs, or
cast-trickery), or is it something that we need to manually check?
