Never use hard coded numbers for structure member offsets! Use an OffsetOf
type of macro to make the compiler do the math for you.

Don't eyeball a structure and try to figure out the member offsets, as this
is extremely error-prone. In this case the 'd' member is indeed at offset 6
(not 5) due to the way members are aligned.
