 Uncommenting the last writeline makes it work ok (the bug manifests with an
 integeroutofrange exception in the BigInterger ctor).		public BigInteger
 (BigInteger bi, uint len)
 doesn't check that len is >= bi.length.
 A speedup for the shift operation hides the problem (look in mini.c for a
 reference to this bug).

+This could be the compiler generating invalid code, recently Alan
+found that assemblies generated by gmcs sometimes crash on Windows
+(and only under certain conditions):

+See bug 81956 for his information;   This could be a compiler bug.
