The result is implementation-defined or an implementation-defined signal
is raised.

GCC documentation (gcc.info 4.5 Integers implementation) says this

] * `The result of, or the signal raised by, converting an integer to a
]   signed integer type when the value cannot be represented in an
]   object of that type (C90 6.2.1.2, C99 6.3.1.3).'

]   For conversion to a type of width N, the value is reduced modulo
]   2^N to be within range of the type; no signal is raised.

which is exactly what we need.
