+Subject: [PATCH] cpio: Fix possible crash on 64-bit systems
+
+copyin_link() tries to allocate (unsigned int)c_filesize + 1 bytes.
+If c_filesize == UINT_MAX, this works out as 0 bytes, resulting in a
+null pointer and a subsequent SIGSEGV.
+
+The previous commit made this impossible on 32-bit systems.
