Michael McCandless updated LUCENE-1457:
---------------------------------------

    Fix Version/s: 2.4.1

> There are a few binary search implmentations in lucene that suffer from a now 
> well known overflow bug

>                 Key: LUCENE-1457
>                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/LUCENE-1457
>             Project: Lucene - Java
>          Issue Type: Bug

> The places I see it are:
> MultiSearcher.subSearcher(int)
> TermInfosReader.getIndexOffset(Term)
> MultiSegmentReader.readerIndex(int, int[], int)
> MergeDocIDRemapper.remap(int)
> I havn't taken much time to consider how likely any of these are to overflow. 
> The values being averaged would have to be very large. That would rule out 
> possible problems for at least a couple of these, but how about something 
> like the MergeDocIDRemapper? Is there a document number that could be reached 
> that has a chance of triggering this bug? If not we can close this and have a 
> record of looking into it.
