We shouldn't need the #ifdef, radix_enabled() will be false.

Is it really architected as radix only?
Personally I dislike PPC_BIT(), I'd rather you just used 0x10000000. That way
when I'm staring at a register dump I have some chance of spotting that mask.
Also brackets around the bitwise & would make me feel more comfortable.
