        <pre>For the assignment "int g = 0x828D9300L;", clang warns:
implicit conversion changes signedness: 'long' to 'int'

However, the conversion from signed long to signed int does not change the
signedness. The only changed part is the value. 

Please refer to the following steps for more details.
