I should add that even then I don't think the result is normally
distributed (though it will at least be symmetrical).

Cfaq 13.20 covers it.

Well, yes. That's how I (and probably the OP) got to the faulty
linked code in the first place!

The problem is it covers it then links to "another technique" that is
wrong (or maybe is another technique for something else).
