  Target Milestone: ---

The -Wstringop-overflow warning prints huge decimal numbers, e.g.:

 warning: ‘memcpy’: specified size between 18446744071562067968 and
18446744073709551615 exceeds maximum object size 9223372036854775807
[-Wstringop-overflow=]

It would be better if they were printed in hex, or by using their symbolic
name.

...between 0xFFFFFFFF80000000 and 0xFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFF ... size
0x7FFFFFFFFFFFFFFF


...between 0xFFFFFFFF80000000 and INT_MAX ... size INT_MAX/2
