Comment 12 for bug 645662

To be sure, you can also run my original C test code from
2010. If that produces a bit-identtical result, then this
has indeed been fixed. If there are deviations in the last
digits, then the fingerprinting issues is still there, but
at least Python has stopped complaining.

Regards,
Arno
