I talked in person with Zoltan, and he said that he'd be happy
to just get rid of io__write_bytes.

But I just realized that this is used for Aditi bytecode, as well as
for Mercury bytecode.  So I can't just remove io__write_bytes without
breaking the Aditi back-end.

Simon, any comments on this issue?
