If it's a Coverity issue, I think you want to mention the CID, too.

I don't like that hex2decimal() returns -1 when its result is unsigned,
which is why you had to write the check as > 0xf rather than < 0. So in
this sense, g_assert_non_reached() would look better to me. But we could
also just change it to return UINT_MAX instead, which should be the
same, just written in a less confusing way.
