112 
113 	 1) Is this safe?  Will it catch all the zero bytes?
114 	 Suppose there is a byte with all zeros.  Any carry bits
115 	 propagating from its left will fall into the hole at its
116 	 least significant bit and stop.  Since there will be no
117 	 carry from its most significant bit, the LSB of the
118 	 byte to the left will be unchanged, and the zero will be
119 	 detected.
120 
121 	 2) Is this worthwhile?  Will it ignore everything except
122 	 zero bytes?  Suppose every byte of LONGWORD has a bit set
123 	 somewhere.  There will be a carry into bit 8.  If bit 8
124 	 is set, this will carry into bit 16.  If bit 8 is clear,
125 	 one of bits 9-15 must be set, so there will be a carry
126 	 into bit 16.  Similarly, there will be a carry into bit
127 	 24.  If one of bits 24-30 is set, there will be a carry
128 	 into bit 31, so all of the hole bits will be changed.
129 
130 	 The one misfire occurs when bits 24-30 are clear and bit
131 	 31 is set; in this case, the hole at bit 31 is not
132 	 changed.  If we had access to the processor carry flag,
133 	 we could close this loophole by putting the fourth hole
134 	 at bit 32!
135 
136 	 So it ignores everything except 128's, when they're aligned
137 	 properly.
138 
139 	 3) But wait!  Aren't we looking for C, not zero?
140 	 Good point.  So what we do is XOR LONGWORD with a longword,
141 	 each of whose bytes is C.  This turns each byte that is C
142 	 into a zero.  */
