Taking a quick look at most of these, I don't think that change to
them is require, but it may be desrable.  They appear to do things
mostly with 32bit quantities, but might be faster doing them with
64bit quantities.

I'm not completely sure that bcopy needs to change.  mips64 doesn't
introduce, as far as I know, any new alignment restrictions.
