I get this when I use the bigint pragma, rather than bignum.

Yes, I think I was mistaken - the problem only arises when bignum is
invoked. Using M::BI instead of bignum seems to fix things.

Btw, I think at least some newsreaders (and possibly the archives) are going
to show my post (and the follow-ups) as a separate thread from the
original - "use bigmnum" versus "use bignmum?". Sorry 'bout that .... some
curly issues with my newsreader that I didn't quite workaround as I had
hoped :-)

Cheers,
Rob
