From nse_bitlib.cc:

typedef long long Integer;
typedef unsigned long long UInteger;

#define luaL_checkbit(L, n) ((Integer)luaL_checknumber(L, n))
#define luaL_checkubit(L, n) ((UInteger)luaL_checkbit(L, n))

#define TDYADIC(name, op, checkbit1, checkbit2) \
  static int bit_ ## name(lua_State* L) { \
    lua_pushnumber(L, \
      checkbit1(L, 1) op checkbit2(L, 2)); \
    return 1; \
  }

#define DYADIC(name, op) \
  TDYADIC(name, op, luaL_checkbit, luaL_checkbit)

#define MONADIC(name, op) \
  static int bit_ ## name(lua_State* L) { \
    lua_pushnumber(L, op luaL_checkbit(L, 1)); \
    return 1; \
  }

#define VARIADIC(name, op) \
  static int bit_ ## name(lua_State *L) { \
    int n = lua_gettop(L), i; \
    Integer w = luaL_checkbit(L, 1); \
    for (i = 2; i <= n; i++) \
      w op luaL_checkbit(L, i); \
    lua_pushnumber(L, w); \
    return 1; \
  }

MONADIC(bnot, ~)
VARIADIC(band, &=)
VARIADIC(bor, |=)
VARIADIC(bxor, ^=)
TDYADIC(lshift, <<, luaL_checkbit, luaL_checkubit)
TDYADIC(rshift, >>, luaL_checkubit, luaL_checkubit)
TDYADIC(arshift, >>, luaL_checkbit, luaL_checkubit)
DYADIC(mod, %)

(These *ADIC uses are the lines 51-58 for anyone not looking that the
actual file)

Hmm.. it looks intentional, doesn't it? The casts to Integer and
UInteger make me think so.

I think VS is just eager to gives warnings :)

I don't think nse_bitlib.cc needs fixing, it just casts and VS
complains... Thoughts?

Thanks,
Kris Katterjohn
