Just to avoid double calculation of size, otherwise I don't have
any significant prefernce, other than -EOVERFLOW would not be reported
separately (not sure if this a good or a bad thing), and that
it would be a bit more cumbersome to incorporate the Yonghong's
suggestion[1] about the INT_MAX check.
