If (plci->msg_in_read_pos == plci->msg_in_wrap_pos) is true in the first
test it can't be true in the second.
So the code could be optimized a bit. But the first assignments are needed.

If it's false in the first it may become true in the second. So it's not a
bug. All conditions are really needed.
