Sorry for the error. Thanks for the fix. This is a classic example of
undermanaged code evolution. Originally, the Integer class maintained
the requirement that the minimum length of an Integer was
SHORT_PER_LONG, but this was dropped in 1.36.3, in order to simplify
the new 1.36.3 Integer<->IntRep interface. The Itolong code was not
changed to reflect this. Sorry.

-Doug
