PR gprof/20499
* corefile.c (num_of_syms_in): Return an unsigned int.
- (core_create_syms_from): Catch a possible integer overflow
- computing the argument to xmalloc. Also allow for the possibility
- that an integer overflow in num_of_syms_in means that less space
- has been allocated than expected.
+ Fail if the count exceeds the maximum possible allocatable size.
+ (core_create_syms_from): Exit early if num_of_syms_in returns a
+ failure code.
