I'm not sure if these bitfields actually _do_ conserve memory.
Generated code gets bigger (need bitwise masks and stuff).
Code also needs memory. It probably only conserves memory, if the
structure is instanciated a lot.
Actually, that's a good point. On several RISC architectures it
certainly generates bigger code.
