     *  It makes the assumption that right-shift on a negative signed value
     *  fills the leftmost bits by copying the sign bit.  This is wrong.
     *  According to K&R 2nd ed, section `A7.8 Shift Operators' on page 206,
     *  the result of right-shift of a negative signed value is
     *  implementation-defined.  At least one implementation fills the
     *  leftmost bits with 0s (i.e., it is exactly the same as an unsigned
     *  right shift).  This means that when `a' is negative, `sa' ends up
     *  with the value 1 rather than -1.  After that, everything else goes
     *  wrong.
