Both results in the original post contained exactly one pair of curly 
*braces*: They were both of the form {N, D}. I assume he meant round 
*parenthesis*, of which there are many since edf1ae46a92 was committed.

Sorry, I see now that you are right. The old and new computed numerators 
differ by a factor 282901891126422365/highA. That factor certainly 
shouldn't contain a highA. Also, computing the GCD of the original A and 
B segfaults over here.
