 * The code below is a bit sneaky.  After a comparison fails, we

 * divide the work in half by moving either left or right. If lim

 * is odd, moving left simply involves halving lim: e.g., when lim

 * is 5 we look at item 2, so we change lim to 2 so that we will

 * look at items 0 & 1.  If lim is even, the same applies.  If lim

 * is odd, moving right again involves halving lim, this time moving

 * the base up one item past p: e.g., when lim is 5 we change base

 * to item 3 and make lim 2 so that we will look at items 3 and 4.

 * If lim is even, however, we have to shrink it by one before

 * halving: e.g., when lim is 4, we still looked at item 2, so we

 * have to make lim 3, then halve, obtaining 1, so that we will only

 * look at item 3.
