"but overflow may occur" -- I'm getting a little bit over my head here, but I
think the academic papers for the Smith algorithm say that it underflows but
doesn't overflow. Or maybe that was a description of an improvement to Smith
that I came across. If we're going to be technical here, we should be sure that
our wording is accurate.
