[CLN-list] Question about compiler warning

[Jan Rheinländer]

Hi,

in integer/gcd/cl_I_gcd_aux2.cc there are the lines (starting at line 76):

void partial_gcd (uintDD z1, uintDD z2, partial_gcd_result* erg)
{
var uintD x1 = 1;
...
line 100:
if (qx > (uintDD)(~x1)) {

The compiler tells me that after taking the bitwise complement of x1,
the (uintDD) cast will extend x1 by adding zeros, which is probably not
the intention?
