I found it a bit surprising that byte-variable overflow does not raise EIntException... I'm using FPC 1.0.6 (with -Co on the command line).
Also use -Cr. An overflow and a range check are semantically exactly the same (you get a value which cannot be represented by a certain number of bits). However, Borland first introduced range checking that didn't catch overflows, so when they added overflow check, they made it a different switch for compatibility's sake. This means that FPC is also stuck with two switches for catching essentially the same error...
