A new version is here:

http://cr.openjdk.java.net/~bpb/8032027/webrev.05/

I changed the test to verify these values:

        Stream.Builder<BigInteger> sb = Stream.builder();
        int maxExponent = Double.MAX_EXPONENT + 1;
        for (int i = 1; i <= maxExponent; i++) {
            BigInteger p2 = BigInteger.ONE.shiftLeft(i);
            sb.add(p2.subtract(BigInteger.ONE));
            sb.add(p2);
            sb.add(p2.add(BigInteger.ONE));
        }
        sb.add((new BigDecimal(Double.MAX_VALUE)).toBigInteger());
        sb.add((new 
BigDecimal(Double.MAX_VALUE)).toBigInteger().add(BigInteger.ONE));
        report("squareRoot for 2^N and 2^N - 1, 1 <= N <= Double.MAX_EXPONENT",
            sb.build().collect(Collectors.summingInt(f)));

At line 1892 of the current version of MutableBigInteger I changed "if 
(bitLength() < 63)" to "if (bitLength() <= 63)". I realized that in that case 
the entire calculation might as well be done in longs so I changed it 
accordingly. The modified test passes with this new revision.

Thanks,

Brian
