Actually, there isn't.

Of course, sometimes you purposely write code which you know is going to
overflow and wrap round in a specific way. But frequently you *don't*
want this behaviour - and I wish there were some pragma or something to
make this be checked. AFAIK, most CPU types give you an efficient way to
testing for such conditions...
