I'm not really following your aversion to a cast. Surely none of these constants will ever come close to exceeding INT_MAX.
Although a cast would be safe in this case, verifying that it's safe requires too much thinking. I want a knowledgeable reader to be able to look at just that line of code and trivially say "yeah, that's benign" while muttering a few choice words about clueless compilers.
How about replacing "+" with "~~"? That is, something like the first attached draft patch.
That requires much more thinking than (int) IMHO. Guillermo
