Hi Nathan, Nick,

Thanks for the patch (and the patience).

Perhaps it's interesting to mention the reason for this change,
which you mentioned as a comment before:

"""
 The ultimate goal is to get
-Wtautological-compare enabled because there are several subwarnings
that would be helpful to have and right now they are all disabled.
"""

The change is small enough and if it helps enabling helpful
warnings, then it seems a good idea.

For consistency, it would be good to also patch the other case(s).

Thanks,
