Yeah that's what I was thinking also, and I went through the function
and didn't find anything suspicious (besides it's same as the 64 bit
version except for the int128 use).
It really might be some combination of arithmetic + the conversion to
16bit uint bug in the compiler. Would be worth to try to produce test
case and try it standalone maybe?
