yes -- instead of passing -1 into CHECK_AND_SET_VAL as the value to compare
against, call a different macro that just sets the value, unless I'm
misunderstanding why -1 is passed in. Then CHECK_AND_SET_VAL would do unsigned
comparisons.
I can submit a patch for this, but I wasn't completely sure of the intent of
using -1 as the compare value.
