Not exactly what I meant...  I've tentatively applied it, with the
following commit message:

--------------------------------
get rid of INT_LIMIT, use type_max() instead

INT_LIMIT() tries to do what type_max() does, except that type_max()
doesn't rely upon undefined behaviour[*], might as well use type_max()
instead.

[*] if T is an N-bit signed integer type, the maximal value in T is
pow(2, N - 1) - 1, all right, but naive expression for that value
ends up with a couple of wraparounds and as usual for wraparounds
in signed types, that's an undefined behaviour.  type_max() takes
care to avoid those...
