 ========================================
 
+- Core
+  . Bitwise shifts by negative numbers of bits are disallowed (throws E_WARNING
+    and gives FALSE, like a division by zero).
+  . Left bitwise shifts by a number of bits beyond the bit width of an integer
+    will always result in 0, even on CPUs which wrap around.
+  . Right bitwise shifts by a number of bits beyond the bit width of an integer
+    will always result in 0 or -1 (depending on sign), even on CPUs which wrap

   . dba_delete() now returns false if the key was not found for the inifile 
     handler, too.
