>Description:
primes(1) can generate prime numbers.
However, its prime table (/usr/src/games/primes/pr_tbl.c) contains
primes less than 2^16. And the program didn't generate more prime in
runtime. So it can only determine prime less than 2^32.
For numbers larger than 2^32, it may incorrect print non-prime numbers.
>How-To-Repeat:
$ primes `echo 2^32 | bc -q` | xargs -n 1 factor | grep '[0-9] '

4295622677: 65539 65543
