 Hi Marvin,

 I hope you forgive me my temporal {arrog|ignor}ance ;) Your use case
 shows, that the user can hardly avoid hitting the overflow trap of open
 intervals that are computed internally in the library in your test case.
 Also your fix is a nifty one. So thanks again for the report. I will apply
 your fix and put you on the credits list :) Send in more use cases if you
 find more bugs related to the {{{[min,max]}}}-preinitialized usage.

 Cheers,[[br]]
 Joachim
