Ah, I hadn't seen that (the other bits were building on x86).

Yeah, like I say some of the warnings didn't look like they were new.

Sorry, I misread the warning there (or was perhaps looking at another
one) and for some reason though it was about dropping signs but it's
rather due to BIT() being defined for longs which is a rather bad
landmine given how common a pattern negation is.  I do see that
synclink.h has some convenient BITn macros for some reason which would
do the trick but really I think it's just a case of open coding the
BIT() usage, or defining a BITI() or something but that seems ugly.
Probably just open code the definitions.
