Those overflow errors are bugs (the tests have no overflowing constant expression, it must be something the compiler is generating internally), and it seems they only appear for 64-bit compilation for me, not for 32-bit, for some reason. But as they are independent of the patch, OK with -Wno-overflow and with a PR filed for the bogus overflow errors. (I get the overflow errors for a char array for a size of ((size_t)-1 >> 4)+1 but not for ((size_t)-1 >> 4), i.e. 1ULL<<60 bytes is the point where the bogus errors start.) -- Joseph S.
