factor() bug?

[bill.daly@tradition.co.uk (Bill Daly)]

Running version 2.0.10 under Windows NT, I get the following strange
result:

   log = 1 (logging on)
? ? factor(18444562698542235648)
  ***   can't rename file LPTMP.tgp to LPREL.tgp.

? ? factor(18444562698542235648,0)
%1 = 
[2 14]

[3 1]

[4657 1]

[153701 1]

[524257 1]

? Good bye!

LPREL.tgp does not exist in the working directory, while LPTMP.tgp does.
It contains the following:

337 @ 25827601 : 3 2 1 3 1 4 2 6 1 7 1 8 1 17 1 21 0

There are also files LPNEW.tgp, COMB.tgp, FNEW.tgp and FREL.tgp.
LPNEW.tgp is the same as LPTMP.tgp except that it contains the line

607 @ 43603151 : 3 2 1 3 1 5 1 6 1 7 1 8 1 11 1 12 1 13 0

below the existing line for 607... COMB.tgp contains these two lines and
no others. FREL.tgp is empty, and FNEW.tgp contains

It does no good to set primelimit to 1000000 first.

I don't know if this is a version-specific or system-specific problem.

For some reason, probably a problem with my server, I can't access the
site megrez.math.u-bordeaux.fr, and my email to Karim gets kicked back
as well. I'll try to get this straightened out, but it may take some
time, since the server is in London and I am in New York. Meanwhile, I
would appreciate it if someone could email me a copy of the source for
2.0.13, so that I can built a Win32 version.


Regards,

Bill
