jade 94ea517dbe Build with traps on signed overflow
This is UB, we should not be doing it, and we can cheaply turn it into
crashes reliably. We would much rather have crashes than the program
doing something silly.

Benchmarks, but i wonder if they are nonsense because they get identical
times across compilers?!
