For the article, cf. http://csbruce.com/cbm/transactor/pdfs/trans_v7_i02.pdf, page 37-39 in the PDF, or 33-35 as written on the page. Interestingly, it seems Philip A. Slaymaker fixed the problem, but he does not know for sure which of the patches fixes it, or if it is all of them. Or do I misunderstand that article? Regards, Spiro. -- Spiro R.
