Ben,

I've just done some basic testing of lmw/stmw, lwz/stw, lhx/sth, 
lfs/stfs, and lfd/stfd misaligned across a doubleword boundary, and 
everything looks good so far.   I'll check out the byte reversals and a 
few other forms tomorrow.
Excellent, thanks ! BTW. Make sure you test these one CPUs that actually
trap on misaligned accesses :) Best is probably to do the misaligned
access accross a page boundary, that's what most CPUs can do.

Ben.
