A fun read!
"(Late at night, I double checked. Mozilla’s CheckedInt is just
as bad as I remembered. They do a division to test for
multiplication overflow. Come on, put a line of assembler in
there! Portability is worth a price, just not any price.)"
Shocked: do you use assembly in Checked and cripple the
optimizer?!?!
Luckily, no. But LDC and GDC do create the `seto` instruction I
think you were hinting at:

(LDC doesn't do as good as it could,
