Comment (by zooko):

 Huh, and it also passed by all of my clever checks for internal
 consistency --
 https://github.com/zooko/pycryptopp/commit/a7f5955a576734396a54f5c10497c84018022691
 -- and yet still triggered on the final Crypto++ check for internal
 consistency! https://tahoe-lafs.org/buildbot-
 pycryptopp/builders/MM%20netbsd5%20i386%20warp/builds/150/steps/bench/logs/stdio
 Curiouser and curiouser!

 I'm still stumped, and I still need help.
