    Thanks to everyone who commented on the white paper, it's a lot
    better because of the comments I got here and on gcc-help. 
p { margin-bottom: 0.08in; }

In particular I'd like to thank Václav Haisman, Thomas Heller who
      wrote the memcpy version of the routine I use in the document and
      pointed out that it will
      generate exactly the same assembler, and Andrew Haley who pointed
      out
      a more portable way to define the union, and also pointed out that
      gcc will elide the calls to memcpy.
