There are still a lot of work in double-checking, since only exponents
between 1,500,000 and 1,700,000 are available on Primenet (and there are a
lot of exponents below 1,500,000).
And don't forget that Prime95 can have two different residues for some
exponents, so we'll need a third LL-test.

Can anybody take the role of George Woltman onto MacLucasUnix ?
