--- Comment #3 from Martin Sebor <msebor at gcc dot gnu.org> ---
I was going to confirm this but changed my mind. I don't think the test case
qualifies as buffer overflow since it starts writing well past the end of the
buffer, i.e., into an arbitrary address. Buffer overflow is called an overflow
because it starts by writing into a buffer but proceeds writing past its end.
It will always be possible to get around a stack canary by skipping over it.
