Subject: how to do bit-wise operation on none modular types?

greetings,
I have an integer value that is returned from some call (its status).
I'd like to take the bit-wise "and" of this value against
another value (16#FFFF#). (i.e. in C, do: 0xffff & i)
Ada does not allow this, as both operands must be modular integer types
(i.e. range from 0 to some positive value).
what can one do? do I need to convert integer value returned from signed
to unsigned (i.e. modular)? how?
cheers,
Bill.
