I've seen bugs in the tracker where the reporting is broken but the
range checker is working "correctly", which seems to be the case here.

It does continue to find bugs, so I'd rather keep it on. GCC has fixed
all the issues we've run into so far (though not all have been back
ported to GCC 12 yet, so yes, let's keep -Warray-bounds disabled there).

Specifically, I've been tracking:
https://gcc.gnu.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=105679	Fixed 13+
https://gcc.gnu.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=99578	Fixed 12+, 11.3

And it looks like Sudip's proposed fix for this particular code is
additionally fixing unsigned vs signed as well. I think -Warray-bounds
did its job (though, with quite a confusing index range in the report).
