A complete set of test-cases should catch all major (e.g. showstopper) bugs.
If a bug of such magnitude makes it into a release product testing cannot have
been thorough. And someone admitted that testing for v.17 was in fact not
thorough, as the routines that kick in above 2^22 never were tested since the
test suite didn't include an exponent above 2^22.

the air.
