Comment (by nickm):

 I have fixes in my branch `stack_fixes_032`, with each issue getting a
 separate commit.  I have not re-run this branch under STACK.

 There seem to be two kinds of issues here:
   1) We checked to see whether something that can't possibly be negative
 is negative.  Sometimes this means that we had done the arithmetic wrong;
 sometimes it means that the check was erroneous.
   2) We check for NULL-ness of a pointer that can't possibly be NULL.
 This usually means that the NULL check was redundant.

 I'd like a second opinion on all the arithmetic fixes, especially to know
 if you think they represent a real bug that needs a separate ticket.
