+ The modulus must be a power of two.
See RFC 1982 for discussion of the ways in which Serial numbers do
not work like normal integers. In particular, note that there's a
corner case in which one can have a pair of Serial numbers I1 and
I2 where I1 is neither equal to, less than, nor greater than I2.
This is deliberate and is not a bug in the code. See the RFC.
