In theory, yes, but the problem is: What do you use as the reference
implementation? The new implementation for detecting the overflow, trial
division, is just about the simplest thing that can work. Of course, you could
compare it with an inline asm implementation, but platform-specific tests for a
platform-independent piece of code seem a bit strange.
