And why is it again that you want to DIY instead of using a record
specification and thus leaving it to the compiler to generate fast,
correct, code to handle the shifting and masking? (Since the Subject line
mentions "bitwise" operations, you presumably are multiplying and dividing
by powers of two on a binary machine, right?)
