I have started working on the 16 bit: first I added 16 bit library support for
the Unix build system and implemented some utf16 utility functions. Philip and
me aggreed that this work should go in a branch to keep the trunk clean,
although not yet decided where/how.

I also realized that I don't need to know the host byte order. The regular
functions (compile, exec) will only support host byte order, and the conversion
functions only need to know that the input is in host or not in host byte
order, and flip the bytes in the second case. Sorry for the extra work although
I learnt a lot from your discussion.
