in thread reliable get position of leftmost bit in large integers

Thanks. This smells very fast. I still need the value of the position, but only in case of a match, and only from one side. Then BrowserUK's solution should do it.

WOW, maybe we can beat the speed of Algorithm::Diff::XS in pure Perl. Still reached 80% yesterday.
