[bug-gnu-libiconv] [bug #58903] assert gentranslit buffer-overflow

[Pascal Cuoq]

Follow-up Comment #3, bug #58903 (project libiconv):

> the malloc reserves 2 for this, so the assert extends it up to 99

Note that technically, the assert as written does not guard against printing
100 in:


   assert (i < 100);
   sprintf(s, "%02x_%d", p, ++i);


I would also question the wisdom of using assert(), which can be disabled at
pre-processing, for a safety check, but that could be argued to be a question
of style.
