Hi Elizebeth,

Just an administrative question at the moment.  Do you have
a copyright assignment for GCC on file with the FSF?

I need to review the standards, but if the standard state
a negative length should be treated as if it is len=0 then
the I think the warning message should be hidden behind
a -fcheck= option.  Perhaps, we can overload -fcheck=bounds
or introduce a new option key -fcheck=charlen.  My reason
is that it can be annoying for standard conforming code 
to issue a warning for standard conforming behavior.
