I'm not sure what is meant here, as the program in question
doesn't have any implicit arithmetic conversions (or at least,
it doesn't on the typical 64-bit host I was talking about).

It could well be that the exact expression "INT_MAX + 1"
has well-defined behavior on all platforms we care about,
and that it always returns INT_MIN.  But I'm concerned
about the more general issue, which is whether Emacs code
can always assume that signed integer arithmetic
wraps around.  Unfortunately, there are many practical
Emacs targets where it's incorrect to assume that.
