Sorry, I've been busy recently. The overflow is a very good remark which I 
should have wondered myself. I didn't because I took the patch upstream and it 
was reviewed by the main upstream author. Also I was probably absent minded. 

Anyway, I tried to get certainty by reading the code to see any assumption the 
code is using but I couldn't understand enough of the code. So I reached 
upstream and he shall give me an explanation about wether it's safe or not and 
why in the next days.

I'll get back to you asap.

Best regards.

Thomas

By the way, my condolence for entering the RT ;-)
