Yes but with the CEC_XX_BITS->bits change this point is moot.

I have a 64 bit sparc machine and a bunch of x86 variants. As far as I am
able to tell these are working for all the different algorithms.
If you have a 32 bit PPC machine please try to see if this is still a
problem.

You suggested and I changed the initial alignment code to pick the first
available 4 byte boundary.
After that, the inner loop consumes respectively 4 or 8 bytes of data per
iteration for the 32/64 version of the algorithm. So the computation of len
and rem_len *must* be made differently in the two cases.
