C: integer overflow undefined, checking desirable at least for
debugging purposes.
I think latest Fortran is same as C, can someone confirm?
Yes, it is. Overflow undefined and no checking required; I think very
few Fortran users actually use (or would use) checking on signed overflow.
In Fortran, integers are used to index arrays. So if you want integer
overflow checking, use -fbounds-check :-)
