The Windows buildbots are complaining about this change and I don't know 
why.  I don't have a Windows build to test on, but on Unix it doesn't 
compain (gcc) even if I add -Wsign-compare.

>From (only relevant portions shown):

   guint8 num_subrects, subrect_len;
   guint bytes_needed;
   bytes_needed = subrect_len * num_subrects;
   VNC_BYTES_NEEDED(bytes_needed);

To:

   guint8 num_subrects, subrect_len;
   VNC_BYTES_NEEDED(subrect_len * num_subrects);

Where VNC_BYTES_NEEDED is a macro:

   #define VNC_BYTES_NEEDED(a)                                     \
           if(a > (guint)tvb_length_remaining(tvb, *offset))       \
                   return a;

The compiler warning:

packet-vnc.c(1970) : warning C4018: '>' : signed/unsigned mismatch

Any ideas?
