Furthermore, we don't need to check "if (this_end<  size)" actually. Without
this confusing check, we only waste some loops. So this patch removes the

Hmmm... maybe I'm missing something but are you sure?  "this_end -
size" can underflow and "cand>= this_start" will be true incorrectly.


Oh, you are right... Please ignore this. I didn't read it carefully.
