This sounds like a bug fix unlike patches 1 & 2 that sound like
feature work(2) or making code more readable(1).
(After studying the code, this doesn't sound like a bug fix any more,
but a safety thing)
Is it worth having this on a separate track coming in
faster than the rest of this series?

Is there a reason that i needs to be if 32 bits?
Would size_t (for iterating) or 'int' (as a default
like in many for loops) be ok, too?
