Yup.
It would be better to do:
if (dev < 0 || dev >= ARRAY_SIZE(smw_mix_regs))

yup, much better. i did a little housecleaning on the whole file, as
well as 2 more bounds checks in appropriate places.
i'm sorry to ask, but i'm new -- i've got a ~500 line patch, and my
email client is wrapping at 80 chars (unfortunately some lines run over
80 chars), is sending an attachment in ascii format ok? i've seen some
patches sent as attachments, not sure.
waiting for a yes/no response, please cc me

Oh let me rant. You're using mozilla. I just raised a bug against its cute habit of
mangling outgoing text. I've just spent four days trying to find a workable Linux
email client (sophisticated UI, sophisticated IMAP support, sophisticated searching,
doesn't mangle incoming or outgoing messages) and have failed. Netscape 4.x is
still the closest.
kmail is good, but its threading view is hopeless
evolution merrily mangles stuff and is buggy as a bunch of bananas.
Mozilla likes to go for multi-minute CPU burns if you try to handle a large amount
of data. And it mangles outgoing patches.
Of the text-based MUA's pine is the only one which seems to have respectable IMAP
support, but the interface is klunky.
Sigh. Where were we? Oh yes. Inline text is best, attachments are fine.
text/plain if poss.

I was always very happy with VM under Emacs; it did all I wanted to do, and
when not, I could code out some hacks to have it ...

Have you tried Sylpheed? (http://sylpheed.good-day.net/index.cgi.en)

Supports external editor, fast, ability to import a file into message body,
decent IMAP support, patches actually still apply after a round trip.
A few glitches, but looking good, thanks!
