Even for architectures with chars bigger than 8 bits long? From a quick
read of the library source code, and boost::integer documentation, it
seems that the library would not compile there.

Would it make any sense in defining data_type as array< unsigned char,
128 / CHAR_BIT >? I'm interested in portability issues, but I have no
access to platforms other than intel-x86, so I would like to hear some
advice on the subject.

Thank you.
