> success.
> 
> Index is initialized to MAX_UINT16 as default failure value, which is what the
> ASSERT is supposed to test for.  The ASSERT condition however can never
> return FALSE for INT16 != int, as due to Integer Promotion[1], Index is
> converted to int, which can never result in -1.
> 
> Furthermore, Index is used as a for loop index variable inbetween its
> initialization and the ASSERT, so the value is unconditionally overwritten 
> too.
> 
> Fix the ASSERT check to compare Index to its upper boundary, which it will be
> equal to if the loop was not broken out of on success.
