Is "signed" implemented on any compilers yet?  Isn't this necessary to
guarantee proper working of "signed char" as a tiny int? [I have a class
that could use lots of tiny ints]

#include <stdio.h>

main()
{
  signed char sc = -1;
  unsigned char uc = -1;
  char c = -1;
  signed short ss = -1;
  unsigned short us = -1;
  short s = -1;

  printf("%x %x %x\n",sc,uc,c);
  printf("%x %x %x\n",ss,us,s);
}
