This has nothing to do with __typeof__ only to do with the rules of C
that determine the type of an integer constant, see
http://en.cppreference.com/w/c/language/integer_constant#The_type_of_the_integer_constant
Presumably your private port has a 16-bit int, so -32768 doesn't fit
in int and has a 32-bit type instead. If that's not the case then you
have a bug in the port and it's selecting the wrong type for the
integer constant -32767.
It is 32768 that does not fit in `int`. There is no negative integer
constant. -32768 is a unary minus operator followed by an integer
constant 32768, which has type `long` if it does not fit in `int`.
