+Summary: BigInteger.Randomize doesn't work if BigInteger.BitCount == 0
+
+The BigInteger.Randomize throws an ArrayOutOfBounds exception if the 
+BigInteger in question has a bitcount of 0.
+
+BigInteger bi = new BigInteger();
+bi.Randomize(); // blows up
+
+
+Also, should the BitCount method ever return zero? Does a 0-bit integer 
+make sense? If the value of the integer in question is zero, I would let 
+the BitCount method return '1'.
