Apart a colleague mentioning a TI processor (TMS320C5517) and CCL/CSRs XAP processor, both of which are 16-bit, I know only of the Kalimba, as a current-day processor, with non-8-bit-bytes. Well, should any even more exotic creatures show up, then at least I'll have started to pace the way for them...   

Indeed. I know of a few devices apart from Kalimba that have non 8bit bytes, but they are all at least multiples of 8-bits in byte implementation.
