- 1) Is this safe? Will it catch all the zero bytes?
- Suppose there is a byte with all zeros. Any carry bits
- propagating from its left will fall into the hole at its
- least significant bit and stop. Since there will be no
- carry from its most significant bit, the LSB of the
- byte to the left will be unchanged, and the zero will be
- detected.
-
- 2) Is this worthwhile? Will it ignore everything except
- zero bytes? Suppose every byte of LONGWORD has a bit set
- somewhere. There will be a carry into bit 8. If bit 8
- is set, this will carry into bit 16. If bit 8 is clear,
- one of bits 9-15 must be set, so there will be a carry
- into bit 16. Similarly, there will be a carry into bit
- 24. If one of bits 24-30 is set, there will be a carry
- into bit 31, so all of the hole bits will be changed.
-
- The one misfire occurs when bits 24-30 are clear and bit
- 31 is set; in this case, the hole at bit 31 is not
- changed. If we had access to the processor carry flag,
- we could close this loophole by putting the fourth hole
- at bit 32!
-
- So it ignores everything except 128's, when they're aligned
- properly. */
