(svn r10779) -Fix: GCC 4.2 makes (by default for -O2, -O3 and -Os) an assumption that signed integers do not overflow, whereas it is very likely that some of the legacy code does so. It furthermore breaks with the assumed standard (the behaviour is not actually defined in the standard) about the behaviour when signed integers wrap.
