I'd recommend using a macro (or similar):

#define JOIN (a, b) ((a) * 32 + (b))

switch (JOIN (v1, v2))
{
   case JOIN (v1, v2):

}

This may allow the compiler to generate better code (using a table
instead of a branch tree) for the switch if you can make it more
compact, and it makes the source clearer.

I'm not sure if I would really put a space after the macro in the
cases; it looks _very_ weird.

Care, though;

   case (3, 4):

is apparently legal C.
