In practice only UBSAN complains; GCC even documents that it does not
treat it as undefined (which would be insane, especially if the
multiplication by 2 does not overflow as in this case):

     GCC does not use the latitude given in C99 only to treat certain
     aspects of signed '<<' as undefined, but this is subject to change.

But in the interest of purity we should instead compile with -fwrapv.
