hum, bad... and I remember of a few parameters in headers that are in 
the middle 2 bytes :(

A geneal purpose copy-one-byte-at-a-time to and from a buffer would then 
be the only quasi-portable implementation. If, as I understood, you 
implemented something like that for 16bits, it could be available in 
some fashion... I see a lot of waste of time in lwip on small thinks 
like that :(

If it got implemented in some modular way, then users could implemnt 
optimizations for each architecture, and that be shared again :)
