Quirk in Konqueror 5 core JS ?

[Peter Billam]

Greetings. This problem arises in the context of the CPAN module
Crypt::Tea ... It works with IE, Mozilla, Netscape, Firefox, IE
and Opera, but if you check out http://www.pjb.com.au/comp/test.html
using Konqueror 5.0 (at least on linux) you will find:

tea_code((2048299521,595110280),
(-764348263,554905533,637549562,-283747546))
returns 1614127572, 339082849,
should be -451692928, 1589210186,

tea_decode((2048299521,595110280),
(-764348263,554905533,637549562,-283747546))
returns 2022045126, -1848224228,
should be -257148566, -1681954940,

:-( Now these two functions are quite short, similar and simple:

function tea_code (v, k) {
// TEA. 2-int (64-bit) cyphertext block in v. 4-int (128-bit) key in k.
var v0 = v[0]; var v1 = v[1];
var k0 = k[0]; var k1 = k[1]; var k2 = k[2]; var k3 = k[3];
var sum = 0; var n = 32;
while (n-- > 0) {
sum -= 1640531527; // TEA magic number 0x9e3779b9
sum = sum|0; // force it back to 32-bit int
v0 += ((v1<<4)+k0) ^ (v1+sum) ^ ((v1>>>5)+k1) ;
v1 += ((v0<<4)+k2) ^ (v0+sum) ^ ((v0>>>5)+k3) ;
}
var w = new Array(); w[0] = v0|0; w[1] = v1|0; return w;
}
function tea_decode (v, k) {
// TEA. 2-int (64-bit) cyphertext block in v. 4-int (128-bit) key in k.
var v0 = v[0]; var v1 = v[1];
var k0 = k[0]; var k1 = k[1]; var k2 = k[2]; var k3 = k[3];
var sum = 0; var n = 32;
sum = -957401312 ; // TEA magic number 0x9e3779b9<<5
while (n-- > 0) {
v1 -= ((v0<<4)+k2) ^ (v0+sum) ^ ((v0>>>5)+k3) ;
v0 -= ((v1<<4)+k0) ^ (v1+sum) ^ ((v1>>>5)+k1) ;
sum += 1640531527; // TEA magic number 0x9e3779b9 ;
sum = sum|0; // force it back to 32-bit int
}
var w = new Array(); w[0] = v0|0; w[1] = v1|0; return w;
}

Is there perhaps some known quirk in Konqueror's handling
of core operators like << >>> | or ^ ?

The only difference I've been able to find is revealed by

document.write('First, x = 16405315271<BR>x&gt;&gt;&gt;5 = ');
var x = 16405315271;
document.write(x>>>5);
document.write('<BR>x&gt;&gt;5 = ');
document.write(x>>5);
document.write('<BR>Second, x = 0 | 16405315271<BR>x&gt;&gt;&gt;5 = ');
x = 0 | 16405315271;
document.write(x>>>5);
document.write('<BR>x&gt;&gt;5 = ');
document.write(x>>5);

which in Firefox gives
First, x = 16405315271 (more than 32 bits!)
x>>>5 = 110012918 <----------
x>>5 = -24204810
Second, x = 0 | 16405315271
x>>>5 = 110012918
x>>5 = -24204810

but on Konqueror gives
First, x = 16405315271
x>>>5 = 67108864 <----------
x>>5 = -24204810
Second, x = 0 | 16405315271
x>>>5 = 110012918
x>>5 = -24204810

Is this difference responsible for my problem ? If so, if anybody
has any idea how to tweak functions tea_code and tea_decode so as to
make Konqueror behave like the others, I'd be very happy to hear it ...
