Thanks for the hint, that's an interesting likely candidate for some
'random' c9 failure indeed.
I guess Laurent Guerby was a little bit too optimistic when he changed the
value of this constant :-)

Change looks good to me, I'd probably consider integrating it.
Laurent, could you give some figures on the time impact of such a
change ? Maybe 0.01 would be a sufficient compromise ?
