I realize this has nothing to do with the issue being discussed, but
let's keep the technical references accurate.  DEC's current
generation of processor chips (the 78032, aka MicroVAX-II) _does_
support bit addressing and manipulation.  It may be an interesting
question as to whether this is a good idea, so I've directed
discussion to comp.arch.
