Shifts greater than the word size can give different types of undefined
behaviour. Ignoring higher bits of the shift count is also common, I
think, depending on compiler and instruction set.
But in this case, I think it can't cause any real harm, because these
shifts are inside an
if (authlen >= (0x01ULL << 32)) {
which should be always false if authlen (of type size_t) is 32-bits.

I think you get the same warnings if you configure with CC='gcc -m32'
CXX='g++ -m32' on a plain x86_64 gnu/linux box or similar.
