I've just fixed this in core.

Ideally/eventually, we should instead change ARCH_WORD to be of an
unsigned type, and introduce a signed equivalent for the very few places
where that is needed.

magnum's fix is correct for now, although in core I also changed the
mask[] array declaration in rpp.h to use unsigned ARCH_WORD elements.
I think magnum will want to merge this fix into jumbo.

Thanks!
