d9d1bd3 nCheckDepth chain height fix (romanornr) Pull request description: ```` if (nCheckDepth <= 0) nCheckDepth = 1000000000; // suffices until the year 19000 if (nCheckDepth > chainActive.Height()) nCheckDepth = chainActive.Height(); ```` These lines confuse me. Correct me if I am wrong, but we can't check any more blocks than we have right? If someone requests <= 0 it get set it into some huge number and then immediately limit it to the chain height in the following statement. ```` if (nCheckDepth > chainActive.Height()) nCheckDepth = chainActive.Height(); ```` when using ````--checkblocks=Z```` When Z is ````0```` or any other negative number, it will check all blocks. I think it should be changed to this maybe. ```` if (nCheckDepth <= 0 || nCheckDepth > chainActive.Height()) nCheckDepth = chainActive.Height(); ```` Which gets rid of that huge number which is confusing for any other altcoins that have a different block time.
