117 
118 	 1) Is this safe?  Will it catch all the zero bytes?
119 	 Suppose there is a byte with all zeros.  Any carry bits
120 	 propagating from its left will fall into the hole at its
121 	 least significant bit and stop.  Since there will be no
122 	 carry from its most significant bit, the LSB of the
123 	 byte to the left will be unchanged, and the zero will be
124 	 detected.
125 
126 	 2) Is this worthwhile?  Will it ignore everything except
127 	 zero bytes?  Suppose every byte of LONGWORD has a bit set
128 	 somewhere.  There will be a carry into bit 8.  If bit 8
129 	 is set, this will carry into bit 16.  If bit 8 is clear,
130 	 one of bits 9-15 must be set, so there will be a carry
131 	 into bit 16.  Similarly, there will be a carry into bit
132 	 24.  If one of bits 24-30 is set, there will be a carry
133 	 into bit 31, so all of the hole bits will be changed.
134 
135 	 The one misfire occurs when bits 24-30 are clear and bit
136 	 31 is set; in this case, the hole at bit 31 is not
137 	 changed.  If we had access to the processor carry flag,
138 	 we could close this loophole by putting the fourth hole
139 	 at bit 32!
140 
141 	 So it ignores everything except 128's, when they're aligned
142 	 properly.
143 
144 	 3) But wait!  Aren't we looking for C, not zero?
145 	 Good point.  So what we do is XOR LONGWORD with a longword,
146 	 each of whose bytes is C.  This turns each byte that is C
147 	 into a zero.  */
