Jos,

There's nothing simpler I'm aware of

If it's only for occasional use, the bittest() will do fine

You could speed it up by handling half a byte or one byte at a time.
Then you would have an array with the value of the (half) byte + 1 as an index into the array and the value of the element would be '0000', '0001', etc
