Eh, C99, 6.5.7/3:
"If the value of the right operand is negative or is
greater than or equal to the width of the promoted left operand, the
behavior is undefined."
So, if you have int16 target, where unsigned int is 16-bit and UINT_MAX 65535,
then shift count must be >= 0 and < 16, therefore, 2U << 31 is undefined
behavior.
