Huh? Can you elaborate?
When you have a builtin taking a size in bytes then a byte is 8 bits,
not BITS_PER_UNIT bits.
That makes no sense to me. I think the definition of a byte depends on
the machine (hence the term "octet" was coined to be unambiguous). Also,
such a definition would seem to imply that machines with 10-bit bytes
cannot implement memcpy or memcmp.
Joseph, can you clarify the standard's meaning here?
