With this patch the following property assignment:

    property = <0x12345678 'a' '\r' 100>;

is equivalent to:

    property = <0x12345678 0x00000061 0x0000000D 0x00000064>

So, I *think* we want to wait until the question of size
is resolved some more, right?  Or, take this in any event
as "without a type indicator they are all 32-bit values"?
No this patch is fine to take without changing the cell size
semantics.  It's just that it becomes a lot more useful when we do get
those.
