--- Comment #2 from Andrew Pinski <pinskia at gcc dot gnu.org> ---
"writing one too many bytes"

This is one of the English rules that gets non-native speakers.  one is not the
modifier to byte but rather many is "one too many" is.  And many is more than
one.  Even "one or more bytes" is still uses the plural version of bytes.
