In SPIR-V, builtin integral vectors can be either signed or unsigned,
but in MSL they're always unsigned. Unfortunately, the MSL spec forbids
implicit conversions between vector types--even if the corresponding
scalar types would implicitly convert. If you try, the result is a
cryptic error message such as:
```
program_source:37:60: error: cannot convert between vector values of different size ('int4' (aka 'vector_int4') and 'vector_uint4' (vector of 4 'unsigned int' values))
float4 r3 = as_type<float4>((as_type<int4>(r0) * gl_LocalInvocationID.xyyy) + as_type<int4>(r2));
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ ^ ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
```
Therefore, uses of these builtins must be explicitly cast, since the
rest of the binary likely assumes that the builtin is of its declared
type.
