I think it's complaining that you're shifting in 32 bits, and then
using the result only after conversion to 64 bits.  (This probably
comes from the sizenode macro.)  I don't know how commonly this leads
to actual errors in C code, but the warning would have saved me some
momentary puzzlement when writing Java code.
