88 1) Is this safe? Will it catch all the zero bytes?
89 Suppose there is a byte with all zeros. Any carry bits
90 propagating from its left will fall into the hole at its
91 least significant bit and stop. Since there will be no
92 carry from its most significant bit, the LSB of the
93 byte to the left will be unchanged, and the zero will be
94 detected.
95
96 2) Is this worthwhile? Will it ignore everything except
97 zero bytes? Suppose every byte of LONGWORD has a bit set
98 somewhere. There will be a carry into bit 8. If bit 8
99 is set, this will carry into bit 16. If bit 8 is clear,
100 one of bits 9-15 must be set, so there will be a carry
101 into bit 16. Similarly, there will be a carry into bit
102 24. If one of bits 24-30 is set, there will be a carry
103 into bit 31, so all of the hole bits will be changed.
104
105 The one misfire occurs when bits 24-30 are clear and bit
106 31 is set; in this case, the hole at bit 31 is not
107 changed. If we had access to the processor carry flag,
108 we could close this loophole by putting the fourth hole
109 at bit 32!
110
111 So it ignores everything except 128's, when they're aligned
112 properly.
113
114 3) But wait! Aren't we looking for C as well as zero?
115 Good point. So what we do is XOR LONGWORD with a longword,
116 each of whose bytes is C. This turns each byte that is C
117 into a zero. */
