Cool, thank you for taking this optimization.

Just to give you a bit of background: I discovered this while converting some
of the enum types in BSD Make to proper bitfields, which theoretically should
be possible without affecting the generated code.

It was interesting to play around with this code on https://godbolt.org/,
seeing how differently the available compilers translate this simple code
fragment. That's where the Intel assembler syntax comes from. :)
