You're talking about the promotion of char/short -> int in the absence
of prototypes?  Yet another "gotcha" in a language which is long past
its sell-by date.  C is a horrible language which programmers who are
interested in writing correct code quickly (rather than willy-waving
about "performance") should avoid at all costs.
