Oh, well the ARMARM would be right, so I must be misremembering. I thought 
that was one of the reasons for the rotate on misaligned word load tricks 
- to make it easier to mask off bytes.

XAP. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/XAP_processor

As I said, it's possible for the compiler to workaround the fact that the 
smallest directly addressible memory unit isn't 8-bits. But in this case, 
the supplied tools didn't, and so chars are 16-bits.
