If we do not care about speed at all, there is no point implementing
those in C :) The functionalities which depend on the representation
are in macro/inline, making them functions would considerably slow
them down I am afraid.

But I found a way to do it at compile time - it would just need
special-case for windows and universal build to work properly,
