* minor code generation optimizations:
- * better register allocation in CLOS dispatching functions
- * overflow detection when coercing signed bytes to fixnums on x86-64
- is now implemented with one IMUL instruction instead of three shifts
- * more efficient bit-vector access on x86 and x86-64
- * more efficient access to raw structure slots on x86 and x86-64
