Right.  We've got routines to compute log2, and presumably that's all we
really want/need, right?

Probably OK.  I can think of convoluted ways where non-power-of-two alignment
might be useful (bit/nibble addressable machines).  But I'm not aware of
any existing or planned port which would need that capability.

Yup.

Yup.  Amazing, but true.  Also becoming more important for C too.
