I totally forgot about shorts. (brain fart)

This would almost make things doable.

Now I wonder how difficult it would be to tweak gcc to do this...
I don't think it's possible to get this into 3.3 this late in the game
though. I'd say we add it to the todo list and defer until next major
release cycle.
