May be or may not be. The standard leaves that open. char was originally
not intended to do math (the name gives a hint :) so this probably wasn't
thought of being important.

This has been mentioned before: when actual sizes and signed/unsigned are
important, it's good practice to use specific types that are unambiguous.
The standard types char and int are not (in the standard).
