12 On that note.. Would you mind compiling it one time with a gcc built
13 with +boundschecking and then enabling CFLAGS+= -fbounds-checking as a
14 basic q/a check. Reason being that if nobody has ever included it
15 anywhere the chances of it being audited are slim to none and
16 -fbounds-checking helps ferret out alot of common coding mistakes.
17 gcc-3.4.4 works good for this.
