do a circular bit shift very often, but they are sometimes useful in
cryptographic algorithms and for general-purpose bit-twiddling. I

course, these operators could also be overloaded just like the normal
shift operators. It's not that I really need these operators, but it
is yet another opportunity to include more angle brackets into the
language.
