+Subject: [PATCH] Avoid pre-decrement of pointer in big-endian CRC calculation.
+
+There was a small optimization for PowerPCs to pre-increment a
+pointer when accessing a word, instead of post-incrementing. This
+required prefacing the loop with a decrement of the pointer,
+possibly pointing before the object passed. This is not compliant
+with the C standard, for which decrementing a pointer before its
+allocated memory is undefined. When tested on a modern PowerPC
+with a modern compiler, the optimization no longer has any effect.
+Due to all that, and per the recommendation of a security audit of
+the zlib code by Trail of Bits and TrustInSoft, in support of the
+Mozilla Foundation, this "optimization" was removed, in order to
+avoid the possibility of undefined behavior.
