I've seen conflicting information about the shift operator in cases
where operand2 is exactly equal to the number of bits in the object.
E.g., with a 32 bit int, what must the following do?

     int n;
     n <<= 32;

K&R 1st ed. seems to indicate the operation is undefined, but does
the proposed standard change this?
