Subject: Re: Looking for help with an obscure C integer problem

Here is exact cut and paste with zero editing, complete with a typo in the
second comment. The code is unit tested on MS Visual Studio -- hence the two
#ifdef's.

        // Find First Set
        static inline int Ffs64(unsigned long long valueToTest)
        {
                // returns index of first set bit. Uses UNIX convention
where bit 1 is LSB of word for compatibilit with z/OS ffs()

                static const unsigned long long lswMask =
0x00000000ffffffff;

                // note Windows provides a _BitScanForward64() but I did it
this way to make it more z/OS-like for test purposes
                // if we ever needed Windows efficiency, or if IBM provides
an ffs64(), then this should be re-written to take advantage

                if ( valueToTest == 0 ) return 0;

                unsigned int testWord;
                testWord = valueToTest & lswMask;
                if ( testWord != 0 )
                {
                        // _BitScanForward returns base 0
#ifdef WIN32
                        unsigned long index;
                        _BitScanForward(&index, testWord);
                        return index+1;
#else
                        return ffs(testWord);
#endif
                }
                else
                {
                        testWord = valueToTest >> 32;
#ifdef WIN32
                        unsigned long index;
                        _BitScanForward(&index, testWord);
                        return index+33;
#else
                        return ffs(testWord) + 32;
#endif

                }
        }

I have strong -- but not utterly conclusive; you know what debugging a
complex program is like -- that for the value I had in the OP --
0x0034000000000000? -- the method returns 32, implying that the final ffs()
was called with testWord = 0.

I'm struggling to see what is wrong with testWord = valueToTest >> 32. 
There are no side effects and the sequence point is at the end of the full
expression. Can anybody enlighten me?
Charles, is the code snippet you supplied the exact test cast that is
resulting in undefined behaviour? I cannot recreate the problem and I've
tried it on five different C++ compilers, including z/OS v1.13.
