It's definitely a bug.  I think Mauro put a patch in for 3.7 or 3.8.
The reason it works under x86 is because shifting an arbitrary number
of bits > 32 causes indeterminate behavior, and out of dumb luck it
has no effect on x86.

But yeah, I changed the code to shift by one bit and it's been working
fine on ARM for months in my environment (DM3730).
