     82  * performed in signed arithmetics or in unsigned arithmetics.  The C99

     85  * even if the operand type is signed.
     86  *
     87  * K&R provides more guarantees by saying: Right shifting a signed quantity
     88  * will fill with sign bits ("arithmetic shift") on some machines such as the
     89  * PDP-11, and with 0-bits ("logical shift") on others.
