 ### Fixed
 - `verify` now uses an infallible conversion for the internal `ScriptVerifyStatus`, since an unrecognized status can only indicate a build-time mismatch between the bindings and the vendored `libbitcoinkernel` subtree rather than a runtime condition.
 - `ChainstateManager::get_block_tree_entry` now resolves the requested block instead of returning `None` for every input. It passed the address of the `BlockHash` wrapper to the kernel rather than the block hash handle the wrapper owns, so no lookup ever matched an entry in the block tree.
+- `TxOutIter::size_hint` returned the transaction's input count instead of its output count, giving an incorrect hint (and an incorrect `ExactSizeIterator::len`).
