Excuse me, I do not dare to complain it to gcc members, because for me,
the compiler's printing is obviously, and proofs itself is correct. If I
ask a quite obvious question to them, I guess, I will be complained.

Hmm... But I may have an additional trying: Use original gcc and provide
"-Werror=strict-overflow" to see what will happen.

 - If it will report warning too, I can ask gcc members why integrate
   "-Wstrict-overflow" to -Wall.

 - If it will not report warning, it means original gcc also integrate
   "-Wstrict-overflow" or have no this option. And for me, I prefer to
   use "#pragma GCC diagnostic ignored ... " for our code.

Thanks.
