            Bug ID: 22899
           Summary: false negative of -Winteger-overflow
           Product: clang
           Version: trunk
          Hardware: PC
                OS: Linux
            Status: NEW
          Severity: normal
          Priority: P
         Component: Frontend

Clang warns on integer overflow in variable initialization but not assignment.
For example, there is warning on 
  int a = ((uint16_t)0xE570L * (uint16_t)(-1L));
But if I split the statement into two, Clang will not warn:
  int b; 
  b = ((uint16_t)0xE570L * (uint16_t)(-1L));


$: cat t.c
#include <stdint.h>
int main(void) {
  int a = ((uint16_t)0xE570L * (uint16_t)(-1L));
  int b; 
  b = ((uint16_t)0xE570L * (uint16_t)(-1L));
  return 0;
}
$: clang-trunk -Wconversion t.c
t.c:3:30: warning: overflow in expression; result is -445703536 with type 'int'
      [-Winteger-overflow]
  int a = ((uint16_t)0xE570L * (uint16_t)(-1L));
                             ^
1 warning generated.
$: gcc-trunk -Wconversion t.c
t.c: In function ‘main’:
t.c:3:30: warning: integer overflow in expression [-Woverflow]
   int a = ((uint16_t)0xE570L * (uint16_t)(-1L));
                              ^
t.c:5:26: warning: integer overflow in expression [-Woverflow]
   b = ((uint16_t)0xE570L * (uint16_t)(-1L));
