   Unlikely.  I (conjecture?) that Jan's program (or hand simulation?)  is   
   wrong.   
   If Algorithm E is wrong, Jan can inform Prof. Knuth and get a check.

   Also, the many authors who have written on the topic in   
   the last 50 years or so, incidentally reviewing Knuth/Brown/Collins GCD   
   work,   
   and writing programs so they could compare their improvements   
   to the original, would have noticed.
