Care to fix the double space here while touching the code?

I think the more natural check here is:

if ((~*p & mask) != 0)
*p |= mask;

Might be a matter of taste, but this check is equivalent to

*p != (*p | mask)

which is what you really want to test for. (Your check only has this
property for values of mask that have a single bit set, which is ok here
of course.)

This is already fine.

Here it would be:

if ((~old & mask) != 0)
