True. Actually 2.00 says at least 32.

Unfortunately we don't live in a world where "the architecture
guarantees it" has any bearing on reality :)

But given it *should* always be at least 32 maybe I should optimise for
that case. We could use a static key to skip the U32_MAX comparison and
go down the else path.
