/*
 * If used on a vax (i.e., VAX is defined), this routine simply executes
 * the VAX find-first-set instruction.
 * Usage:
 *	int startbit, field_lth, field, result;
 *	result = ffc(startbit,field_lth,field);
 *
 * startbit is the bit number of the field to start the search,
 *		the rightmost bit is number one.
 * field_lth is the length of the field in bits.
 * field is the actual field
 * result is the resulting bit number,
 *		e.g. the number of the first clear bit in the field.
