Say you have this code:

    long int temp;
    int shift;

    shift = 16;

    temp = 0x00000001 << shift;

The value stored in temp is 0x00000000, instead of 0x00010000. Here's the 
disassembly:

 int main()
26:                {
 0AAA6  FA0006     lnk #0x6
27:                  long int temp;
28:                  int shift;
29:
30:                  shift = 16;
 0AAA8  200100     mov.w #0x10,0x0000
 0AAAA  780F00     mov.w 0x0000,[0x001c]
31:
32:                  temp = 0x00000001 << shift;
 0AAAC  200011     mov.w #0x1,0x0002
 0AAAE  78001E     mov.w [0x001c],0x0000
 0AAB0  DD0800     sl 0x0002,0x0000,0x0000
 0AAB2  DE80CF     asr 0x0000,#15,0x0002
 0AAB4  980710     mov.w 0x0000,[0x001c+2]
 0AAB6  980721     mov.w 0x0002,[0x001c+4]

Even more bizarre is a situation when

  shift = 15;
  temp = 0x00001111;

After the shift, temp is 0xFFFF8000 (this works with any number, 0x00009876 
would produce the same result)

If we make shift = 14, we get: 0x00004000.

Is this a known bug in C30?

Finally, a stupid question: how do you display C30 version?
