I think I've read somewhere that string literals (`const` or

(null)-terminated strings.
AFAIR, this should work:
char[] name = "alpha".dup;
mktemp(name.ptr);
D literals are zero-terminated so toStringz is only needed if you
want to pass to C function slice of literal or some runtime input.
Another option is to declare extern(C) function to take `const
(char)*` argument, as far as I remember C it should not affect
mangling but will allow to pass literal directly without
allocating a mutable copy.
