If i remember right you'll notice that if you are not careful with the macros in that patch you could pass it a bit outside of the array causing bad things to happen. I do believe Henrik posted something a few months back on using bitvectors with C with out having to modify the code you might look at that as i'm fixing to look it over as i need to expand them myself. Hey George maybe we could get an easy way to adjust the bit fields in circle it'd be nice if it was already handled for us seeing as how it's fairly easy to use up 32 bits when you start seriously modifying the code.
