Thank you!
Using this approach for up to MUL_512() feels risky, though. That's a
stress test for the assembler. Perhaps there's another way that would
not involve multiplying by a number this large.
I'll try to find time to look into this a bit later, although I have
other (non-JtR) things to focus on first...
Thanks again,
Alexander
