I'm a bit lost in the path to translate "I just forgot to add
non-default option" into "you took a crude shortcut".

If you really do want to blame (if blame must be, which I don't believe
at all) blame gcc that doesn't -Wall by default, not me for
"intentionally avoiding it" (that I didn't).

Oh, I guess it's too bad if I do use a 32-bit variable to contain the
17-bit constant 0x59BD, it most probably won't fit.

This, of course, is way off topic (and not a bit interesting).
See ya.
