I've tried to build fx with the latest clang trunk version with treat warnings as errors and i got this:

>>/data/jenkins/workspace/firefox-clang-last/netwerk/base/nsIncrementalStreamLoader.cpp:72:35: error: comparison 'uint64_t' (aka >>'unsigned long') > 18446744073709551615 is always false [-Werror,-Wtautological-constant-compare]
>>      if (uint64_t(contentLength) > std::numeric_limits<size_t>::max()) {

The error seems to be legit since on 64bit platforms the size of uint64_t coincides with the size of size_t. I think we should have this logic only on 32bit platforms.
