Ah. Nice one. I fixed a couple of similar bugs already, but didn't
notice that one yet, for obvious reasons...

I'll probably rewrite that patch to use the UL(x) macro instead of
_AC(), as we don't need to have an unsigned long long, and that makes
the code look much nicer (sort of).

Blah. Copy paste. Fucks me all the time.
