Hi Colin,

Apologies; I'm not a programmer and don't use git so I've tried to manually apply this edit. If I've done it correctly the fix has not worked.

I downloaded the latest source for stress-cyclic.c and compared it with the version from the tarball and there appear to be a few other fixes included:

# diff stress-cyclic.c new_stress-cyclic.c
82c82
<         check_range_bytes("cyclic-sleep", cyclic_sleep,
---
>         check_range("cyclic-sleep", cyclic_sleep,
110c110
<         check_range_bytes("cyclic-prio", cyclic_prio, 1, 100);
---
>         check_range("cyclic-prio", cyclic_prio, 1, 100);
119c119
<         check_range_bytes("cyclic-dist", cyclic_dist, 1, 10000000);

When I ran the make:
