I think that I found a bug in the initialization of a struct.
This program throws "a.v.y != 0" but all assert should pass...

I'm not sure what the rules are for initialisation of unions, or even if they are defined. What's happening is that the memory is being initialised first by your explicit initialisers for xyza and then again by the defaul initialisers (nan in the case of float) for rgba.

There's no need for a union though in that example, as the types are the same. Would this work for you?

struct Vector(ubyte size, Type)
{
        static assert(size < 5);
        static if (size > 0)
        {
                Type x = 0;
                alias r = x;
        }
        static if (size > 1)
        {
                Type y = 0;
                alias g = y;
        }
        static if (size > 2)
        {
                Type z = 0;
                alias b = z;
        }
        static if (size > 3)
        {
                Type w = 1;
                alias a = w;
        }
}

struct A
{
        int n;
        Vector!(3, float) v;
}

unittest
{
        Vector!(3, float) v;
        assert(v.x == 0, "v.x != 0");
        assert(v.y == 0, "v.y != 0");
        assert(v.z == 0, "v.z != 0");
        A a;
        assert(a.v.x == 0, "a.v.x != 0");
        assert(a.v.y == 0, "a.v.y != 0");
        assert(a.v.z == 0, "a.v.z != 0");
}
