This code hangs the test (Joe Orton's original suggestion):

-------------------------------
             do {
                 apr_bucket *f = APR_RING_FIRST(&in->list);
                 apr_bucket *l = APR_RING_LAST(&in->list);
                 APR_RING_UNSPLICE(f, l, link);
                 APR_RING_SPLICE_TAIL(&out->list, f, l, apr_bucket, link);
             } while (e != APR_BRIGADE_FIRST(in));
-------------------------------

This code also hangs the test (Joe Schaefer's subsequent suggestion):

-------------------------------
             do {
                 apr_bucket *f = APR_RING_FIRST(&in->list);
                 apr_bucket *l = APR_BUCKET_PREV(e);
                 APR_RING_UNSPLICE(f, l, link);
                 APR_RING_SPLICE_TAIL(&out->list, f, l, apr_bucket, link);
             } while (e != APR_BRIGADE_FIRST(in));
-------------------------------

When compiled with -fno-strict-aliasing, Joe Schaefer's suggestion  
passes the test, Joe Orton's suggestion hangs the test.

Or maybe I misunderstood what the code should actually be?
