Hello everybody,

Is it legal to declare explicitly signed shorts, ints, and longs
using statements like:

    signed short ss;
    signed int   si;
    signed long  sl;

Many compilers accept such declarations without producing warning
messages, but I'm concerned that I may be asking for unnecessary
portability headaches.  As I read it, the ARM doesn't explicitly
say that this is legal.  Does this mean that it's illegal?  Did
I read it correctly?

Thanks in advance.
