I'm not sure I would go so far as to call it a bug.
Maybe a non-optimal algorithm.

But your method works, and it is much faster than the
inelegant way I was doing this in one of my programs,
so I've adopted it. It's not going to make you famous,
of course, but maybe it's vindication for spending all
those long hours working it out. :-)

Cheers,

David
