Ah, so this was just a language confusion (understandable, we're not 
perfect in expressing ourselves in English, me included).

So you didn't mean "out-of-bound access" at all but that the value is too 
large to fit the int sized variable.

Could you please try to phrase it better so it's clear what you mean with 
it. And it feels that said multiple times as there's also the 2G thing 
mentioned elsewhere in the changelog. It would be nice if you could try to 
avoid such duplication. So try to structure changelog so that you first 
describe the problem and its impact. And the how the patch solves the 
issue.

Yes, when you change the patch in anyway, please create a new version.
