There are 9008992 composites of the form with s=2 below 2^64.  With 3

s/4^64/64/ ?

For what it's worth I checked the million primes in
the range 452,930,477 to 472,882,027 and they're
now identified correctly (465658903 was included previously).

Note processing time has increased with the patch.
On my 2.1GHz i3-2310M, running over the above range
used to take 14m, but now takes 18m.

cheers,
Pádraig.
