[fpc-devel] Unexpected behaviour with intermediate results

[J. Gareth Moreton]

 As pointed out in the bug report, it's not a bug.  As listed in the
documentation over here:
https://www.freepascal.org/docs-html/current/ref/refsu4.html

 "Every integer smaller than the ”native” size is promoted to a signed
version of the ”native” size. Integers equal to the ”native” size
keep their signedness."

 Apologies for not abiding by RTFM - it's hard to find all the little notes
sometimes.  Still, this is useful to know when it comes to future
optimization work.
