[PATCH] do not depend on undefined signed integer overflow

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 



Signed integer overflow is not defined in C, so do not depend on it.

This fixes a problem with GCC 4.4.0 and -O3 where the optimizer would
consider "consumed_bytes > consumed_bytes + bytes" as a constant
expression, and never execute the die()-call.
