Alpha systems running Red Hat 7.0 fail the -beta2 bntest, however the
failures are sporadic and in different places.  During the initial build
of the new beta I noted that the bntest failed during the reciprocal 
division test, however upon running the bntest by hand it failed on the 
subtract test.  After that, I ran bntest in a shell loop and found that it 
failed about 91% of the time:

Of 104 invocations of bntest:
 15 Division test failed!
  8 Reciprocal division test failed!
 72 Subtract test failed!

test BN_div
Division test failed!

test BN_sub
Subtract test failed!

test BN_div_recp
Reciprocal division test failed!
a=-7F807FFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFCFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFF81818181FFFFFFFFFF949494949

b=-FF00FFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFF9FFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFF03030303FFFFFFFFFF292929292

As with my bug report on -beta1, since I am only on the -users list, 
please send any reply directly to me.
