Configure changes for HAS_NON_INT_BITFIELDS
This probe has been available without my realizing it had been merged. Some compilers, chiefly IBM, use only integer-size bitfields, warning when presented with other-sized ones. Allowing other-sized fields is an extension to the C standard. These warnings don't affect the correctness of the code generated, but very many are generated per run, potentially overwhelming the reader into not noticing warnings that are important.
