But it seems very likely that it's the byte write that is the problem.
That becomes a read-modify-write cycle on the bus, since everything on
the bus is accessed as words. And accessing the DUV-11 on a PDT-11 is
extremely slow. Just guessing, mind you...
But wouldn't all benefit from that? Why conditionalize it?
