Well, they are equivalent where they are both defined, or if you apply C99
rules to infinite-precision integers. The problem here is that INT_MIN %
-1 is undefined (explicitly in C1X) and so a transformation of INT_MIN % 1
into INT_MIN % -1 is unsafe (the other way round, transforming undefined
behavior to defined, is fine at least in the absence of -ftrapv).
