Sebastian Ohlmann requested to merge use_bitand into develop Nov 11, 2019

Description

This is necessary to support mixed integer comparisons, which otherwise are not supported by GCC9 anymore - they are also not part of the standard.

This was fixed already in MRs !215 (merged) and !217 (merged), but then reintroduced only in this file in MR !682 (merged).

Checklist

I have checked that my code follows the Octopus coding standards
