Yes, it can be taken literally. The declarations in functions.h are now
fully prototyped (a la ANSI), which means that the compiler will 'quietly
cast' integral values which don't quite match, like when a short is passed
but a long is expected. This is probably the niftiest thing the ANSI
committee added to the language….
