It's only the > position after the nul byte that would overflow. But what about this code and its commentary (from next_element_from_c_string): /* IT's position can be greater IT->string_nchars in case a field width or precision has been specified when the iterator was initialized. */ if (IT_CHARPOS (*it) >= it->end_charpos) { /* End of the game. */ ... This happens when the iterator is initialized by reseat_to_string. Admittedly, it's not very practical to have such huge strings that are padded to an even larger width...
