I was trying to use bit shifting for division by multiples of two, but
if the shift amount is a multiple of the int size, it seems to fail to
shift the bits. Here's some example code demonstrating it.
.sub _main @MAIN
.local int a, b, c
print "a\tb\tc\n"
a = 24
b = 32
c = a >> b
Shifting anything by >= the bits of the int isn't portable nor specified.
a = 24
b = 16
c = a >> b
and shifting a small number by 16 gives 0 - that's fine. leo
