Comment (by kcrisman):

 {{{
 # self**(p**k*(p-1)//q) = 1 for some q
 }}}
 Should that be `k-1`?  I'd also put it "# now self..." just to make it
 clear

 Everything else looks nice.  I feel like I want to check the logic for
 numbers divisible by 2, 3, or 5 but where start > 5 a little more closely
 (getting late here) but if someone else does that first that is fine.
