KNOWN BUGS

Estimated upper bound is 10**18 - 1, but this is not checked.

When "twee" is glued to "en" it will get a dieraesis on the "e" of "en". The result will be a Perl Unicode string.

When "drie" is glued to "en" it will get a dieraesis on the "e" of "en". The result will be a Perl Unicode string.
