Sizes, again.

I've been testing situations where sizeof(opcode_t) != sizeof(IV) !=
sizeof(IV).
I got most of the casting and arithmetic problems patched [1], but am running
into alignment problems with the bytecode because it currently expects
sizeof(opcode_t) == sizeof(IV). (Or something, I can't tell quite yet
whether the problems in the assembler or the _unpack function.) In either
case, I know that we'll still have alignment problems once we hit runops
land.
What are we going to do about this?
[1] Why won't gcc allow bit-operands on pointers? Is that illegal?
