I did say 'technically' :-) Should there be a sg_miter_stop() before the return at the bottom? Care seems to have been taken to add one before an earlier error return. (The logic in that function is very strange...) Indeed other parts of the file are equally strange. The big multi-line if-else in twocompl() is just: p[i] = (p[1] ^ 0xff) + 1; or even: p[i] = -p[i]; That function could also return the 'zero status' to correct for -0 (rather than the extra check earlier in the caller).
