Hi Dmitry,
Thanks for replying.  I have had a hard time posting to
the list, so it is nice to know that the email actually
got through to someone on the third try ...

PS: not sure that the 'set of integers' idea is correct in
a big-endian, 64-bit environment.  I know the version I
posted is correct in any mix of 32 and 64 bit environments
and big and little endian environments.

Joe
