The addition uses unsigned types, so that overflow is defined. (I now
notice that my commit message is slightly confusing in this regard: It
uses the spec verbiage which is that arithmetic on unsigned integer
types can never overflow, because it is performed modulo the max of said
type + 1; but it is nevertheless common to still call this overflow.)

Furthermore, the shift is performed on signed types and the rounding for
negative numbers divided by four is different than what >> 2 produces
(integer division is defined to use rounding towards zero, whereas right
shifts of negative numbers are implementation defined and typically use
rounding towards -inf (we require this behaviour)). The test fails if I
use / 4 here (with or without the cast to int32_t).
