In this case the above assumption is still reasonably good; what's two bits
between friends?  (Besides, what would $.25 buy you these days? :-))  24-bit
machines are trickier; 12 bits is too short for "short" (PDP-8 enthusiasts
nonwithstanding) and 48 bits is a bit long for a "long".  (Anybody know what
the Harris (no relation) 24-bit/48-bit machines' C implementations use?)
