Bitfields

I know Daniel mentioned that bitfields aren't exactly portable, but how
portable are they?

I have a project in mind to revamp the flag system of CircleMUD to allow
*much* easier addition of extra flags. (You'll still have to convert the
pfile though.) I have two different approaches in mind, one in bitfields,
one with bitvectors, both seem the same in terms of complexity.

Will be a really cool change....
