Note that len=(unsigned int)-127

Note that this should be this call

	      memmove (addroff + delta, addroff,
		       /* +1 due to zero-termination. */
		       string_length (s) + 1 - pos);

-127 = 0 + 1 -128

so I'm not sure this an optimization bug. Question: Why is this case
triggering anyway? 128*4 = 512 << 8192 - \epsilon
