Ah, I see now.  This is all coming back to me.

I would prefer that ev_byte_channel_send() is updated to access only 
'count' bytes.  If that means adding a memcpy to the 
ev_byte_channel_send() itself, then so be it.  Trying to figure out how 
to stuff n bytes into 4 32-bit registers is probably not worth the effort.
