Version 2.  Changed some of the counters to larger types and tested those
too, which took about 130Gb of virtual memory and lots of waiting...

	[BZ #20628]
	* malloc/malloc.c (int_mallinfo): Use saturating add instead of
	overflow to collect statistics into a fixed "int" container.

These don't look right, as INTERNAL_SIZE_T might not be wider than int, 
which means the + in SAT_ADD will wrap around before SAT_ADD gets a 
chance to check for overflow. Also, if SUM is INT_MIN then SAT_ADD(SUM, 
1) should set it to INT_MIN + 1, but that doesn't happen when 
INTERNAL_SIZE_T is wider than int.

How about something like the following instead?

   #define MIN(a, b) ((a)<(b)?(a):(b))

   /* Return the sum of the unsigned int A and the nonnegative integer B.
      If the result is not representable as an unsigned int, return 
UINT_MAX.
      B's type may be any integer type.  */
   #define UINT_SATURATED_ADD(a, b) \
      ({ unsigned a1 = a, b1 = MIN (b, UINT_MAX), sum1 = a1 + b1; \
         sum1 < a1 ? UINT_MAX : sum1; })

and then set 'm->smblks = UINT_SATURATED_ADD (m->sm_blks, nfastblocks);' 
and 'm->hblks = UINT_SATURATED_ADD (0, mp_.n_mmaps);', etc.
