It seems that the problem is that
c + len > c
is equivalent to
len != 0.
Either c + len is within the same object c points to, and it's value
is larger than c (provided that len is not zero), or c + len is
undefined (because it's not the same object). In the latter case, the
outcome is not specified by the C standard (or the GCC documentation),
so it's permissible to choose len != 0 as the value, too.
I wouldn't rule out a compiler bug in this area, but the test case is
invalid.
