No.  Early-raw-slots isn't loaded early enough, and I really don't like
forward-referenced types in defstruct slots.

The known-fun makes it equivalent to WORD in the real compiler, and having
something that is closer to being right in cross-compilation is better than
type T which is what it effectively was.
