------- Additional Comments From pinskia at gcc dot gnu dot org 2005-01-09 22:47 ------- I would get a clearification from the standards comittee if I were you. multiplying a large unsigned number by 16 and getting an overflow is werid case but again, the developer should be checking the size for reality, if they don't it can cause other problems like a seg fault as malloc on linux does not return null when running out of memory.
