I have a function say like this

func(unsigned int foo)
{
	unsigned int i, retval = 0;
	for (i = 0; i < foo; i++)
	{
		retval++;
	}

	return retval;
}

and I call it with 

	val = func(4 - 3);


Seems like gcc WILL pass the -1 to func, and func just get stuck in a loop 
becase i starts at 0 (which is alread greater than a negative number)

This not what I would have expected.

Is this by design?
