Well, despite the discussion about timing of this, I have pulled this.
I still have a fond spot for alpha, even if it has the worst memory
ordering ever devised, but the lack of byte operations was an
inexcusable "we can deal with that in the compiler" senior moment in
the design. So good riddance.
