-Subject: [PATCH] Fix potential signed overflow in pointer arithmatic
-
-Pointer arithmatic results in implementation defined signed integer
-type, so that 's - src' in strlcpy and others may trigger signed overflow.
-In case of compilation by gcc or clang with -ftrapv option, the overflow
-would lead to program abort.
-
-Upstream-Status: Submitted [http://bugzilla.mindrot.org/show_bug.cgi?id=2608]

-Complete the fix
