File a compiler bug if you see them interpreted otherwise.
My understanding from the c90/c99 standards is that hexadecimal constants may result in signed or unsigned types. Contrarily, decimal constants always result in integer types, if no signed suffix is given. However, I made this change only to unify 32 and 64 bit implementation and took already existing code from the 64 bit version. -Robert -- Advanced Micro Devices, Inc.
