No, probably not. I don't have my copy of c99 handy, so can't check it. 
But it is beyond me why any compiler implementation would choose to use 
a rotate instead of a shift... probably a performance issue.

So, yeah, when you have silly parameters, you get what you get.

I'll stick to my suggestion. Which seems unambiguous... but I could be 
wrong.
