Public bug reported:

Binary package hint: bsdgames

The manual claims "The default value of stop is 4294967295."  (Log base
2 of 4294967295 indicates 32 bits.)  My 64 bit system primes generates
larger prime numbers.  Possibly this request will fix the problem?

Bug #229350 Please sync bsdgames 2.17-15 (universe) from Debian unstable
(main).

The mathomatic-primes man page simply says that the maximum size
stopping value depends on the native machine size.

Thank you, Dave.
