Yeah, the code was using + operator instead of | to combine the results, which 
is a problem when shifting signed values. `(0xFF << 16)` is implicitly 
converted to a (signed) int, and thus results in `0xffff0000`, which is 
negative. Combining negative numbers with a `+` in that context is not what we 
want to do.
