Hi Dan,
Thanks for your suggestion.
This looks more natural than original patch, yet I wonder if there may
be an overflow?

To be more specific, if "a" and "mrec_end" is large enough, it seems that
some fields of "a" may be out-of-bounds and also bypass this check because
of the overflow.(Please correct me if I am wrong)
