What I do is just re-issue them as first time tests. The last time I did
this was
roughly six months ago. I don't feel very guilty about this as there is about
a 50% chance the first test was no good and these exponents probably take
about half as much time as the big exponents now issued for first time testing.
I'm not sure why the server has marked some exponents above 5.5M
as available for double-checking.

George
