By the Phobos doc, alignForSize's signature was chosen to be

    char[] alignForSize(E...)(string[E.length] names);

because of issue 2029. Now that 2029 is fixed, it should be possible to change it back to

    char[] alignForSize(E...)(string[] names...);



In fact, the given example

    struct Banner {
       mixin(alignForSize!(byte[6], double)(["name", "height"]));
    }

won't even work on the current version of D as the array literal returns a string[] instead of string[2].
