 Replying to [comment:51 awson]:
 > Weird. No problems with this also. I tried to increase `range` to
 `10000000` (10 millions), no problems either.

 When it works, the program will output the number of primes up to
 trillions if you give it enough time, but this simple version works best
 for ranges up to about 16 billion ;)

 Well, it's not too much of a problem if it is fixed in HEAD as 8.2.1 will
 take care of it, but we need to verify that 8.0.1 standard has the problem
 on your Windows machine and I need to verify that HEAD fixes the problem
 on mine.

 Any suggestions on how to get a development release for Windows 64-bit
 that you show as working without going through hoops to compile it on my
 machine?
