Eventually I'll get a 64 bit machine and handle this myself as it would likely
take many iterations for optimal adjustments in the program.  It's possible that
this will happen in time for CCT8.  (Has it been scheduled yet?)  Also, there is
plenty of other work to be done on the program that's more important than 64 bit
optimization.
