+; This test contains two cast instructions that cannot be eliminated.  If the
+; input of the "test" function is negative, it should be correctly converted
+; to a 32 bit version of the number with all upper 16 bits clear (ushort->uint
+; involves no sign extension).  Optimizing this to a single cast is invalid!
