You're right. When we decided that overflow would no longer be an (optionally)
recoverable error, but that processors would instead always take the recovery
action, I implemented the decision by making the minimal necessary changes to
the text. It seems that the algorithm produces the same results if the third
bullet of 16.4.3 and list item 5 in 16.4.4 are deleted, so I will do this.

Since this change does not affect the semantics of the language, I will treat it
as editorial. I will mark the issue as fixed, and assume your tacit approval;
you (or any WG member) can reopen the bug if you feel that further discussion is
required.
