My example does indeed give a warning when compiled with -Wstrict-overflow=2.
Unfortunately, -Wall implies only -Wstrict-overflow=1 so I got no warning in
the first place. I think the warning levels need to be adjusted so that we get
the warning with -Wall because the consequences are no less serious than
ignoring an overflow check with if(a+const<a), which gives a warning with
-Wstrict-overflow=1
