The patch looks ok as such, but then again warning looks like a false
positive to me: assignment and dereferencing depend on the same value of
eop, which cannot change between the two.

In two minds about this. It is a logical impossibility, but these days 
optimising compilers are getting very aggressive. For instance GCC has a 
delightfully-named -fdelete-null-pointer-checks option, which caused 
security holes..
