We do a lot of DSP type modeling and logic, and I prefer the way MyHDL handles 
it now, which is throwing an error. 

In all the designs we have done, we either make sure an overflow won't happen 
or test and saturate.

I can't see why you would want it to wrap around for a math application.

I prefer to have my model stop on an overflow, so that i can fix the problem 
as I always consider it a problem if an overflow occurs that isn't saturated.
