Some compilers might warn or even generate an error over that. But as said it's just a 2s compliment and the sign but is merely interpreted differently as a cast occurred to signed and back to unsigned. This challenge is interesting need to look for a crypto weakness in the inner function perhaps. Brute force won't work with 2^64...
