Definitely at compile time because the string that gets mixed-in first
needs to be generated from your specification. For that, the bitfields()
function must be

D's string mixin syntax may not be the best, the implementation
may be slower than necessary, and the concept may be strange

That doesn't do what you think it does. There's no guarantee the
bits will actually line up with the status byte.

Is something like this possible?
Thanks
You can do something
I would like to have labeled bits in a union with a ubyte.
Something like this:
```d
struct MyStruct {
union {
ubyte status;
bit A, B, C…etc
}
}
```
Is something like this possible?
Thanks
