So… I have no idea what happens here but this always fails with
“assertion failed (res == EiB): (1 == 1152921504606846976)”. But when I
replace the EiB by 1, it suddenly fails with “assertion failed (res ==
1): (1152921504606846976 == 1)” instead. Replacing the EiB by anything
but 1 also tells me that res is 1.
Now, here’s the kicker. I put an `fprintf(stderr, "res == %" PRIu64
"\n", res);` before this g_assert_cmpuint() (changed to (res, ==, 1))…
And it passes.
Sometimes I really want to change professions.
(Of note is that changing the g_assert() below into a g_assert_true()
also has g_assert_cmpuint(res, ==, 1) pass.)

Oh, it also isn’t correct, I think it needs to be str + 8. As a bonus,
the compiler doesn’t complain then (for some reason…? it still seems
out of bounds).
(Otherwise, to get around the complaint, I used
g_assert_cmphex((uintptr_t)endptr, ==, (uintptr_t)str + 8). Which is
another thing, patch 1 explained to me that we shouldn’t use g_assert() :))
