Thanks for the legwork, Steven!

So far it looks like a gcc bug when using -m32 (whether ints, longs and/or pointers are 4 or 8 bytes _should_ make no difference to anything in Jason Swails's C example).

But it may be a red herring anyway:  there's only one chance in 2**53 of getting a random.random() result equal to 1.-2.**-53 to begin with.
