From: Colin Ian King <colin.king@xxxxxxxxxxxxx> The comparison of signed char constants with unsigned char array elements leads to checks that are always false. Fix this by declaring the VBSF_MOUNT_SIGNATURE_BYTE* macros as octal unsigned int constants rather than as signed char constants. (Argueably the U is not necessarily required, but add it to be really clear of intent).
