That's right, but as Theo noted, expliciting the char "signed" clears 
the problem.
That's really strange. I think this depends on two's complement notation 
AND endianess,
but I'm really curious to know something more.
"Signed" is an implicit keyword, and it doesn't implies any specific 
behaviour. It's simply
implied. Then, I think the problem comes from a gcc optimization.

When i'll have 1 minute, i'm going to go deep in this problem.
