+Subject: [PATCH] goption: Add a precondition to avoid GOptionEntry list
+ overflow
+MIME-Version: 1.0
+Content-Type: text/plain; charset=UTF-8
+Content-Transfer-Encoding: 8bit
+
+If the calling code adds more option entries than `G_MAXSIZE` then
+there’ll be an integer overflow. This seems vanishingly unlikely (given
+that all callers use static option entry lists), but add a precondition
+anyway.
