Hi all,

After the discussion on the v17 bug, I wondered if I could get some more info
on it (preferrably to avoid doing such mistakes myself :-) ). I've only heard
it referred to as the `shift bug', and I've picked up that v17 was only
required if you wanted to double-check `your own results'. (?) Does that mean
the error only occurred in double-checking? Was the bug a direct consequence
of the double-checking implementation, or a pure (minor) glitch? BTW, why
couldn't v16 do double-checking?
