The long line was there in the original so it's forgivable but probably
should be changed in v2.

The main thing though is that this looks to introduce a memory
corruption but because the original used unsigned comparison and we have
changed it to doing "int" comparison.  It should be u32 like in the
original code.  Or size_t would be ok too.

Yup.
