I'd guess this doesn't happen on x86?  What revision of alpha (output of
config.guess)?

Early alphas didn't have byte load/store instructions, so perhaps a
BIT_FIELD_REF is generated somewhere to mask out the needed bits.  I don't
know why this would appear up at the tree level though.  It sure doesn't
have any relevance to bytecode.

I'm starting a rhug build now on my alphaev56.
