in reply to BigInt bug?

The output of your first script is correct on this machine:

2 choose 0 = 1
2 choose 0 = 1
2 choose 0 = 1
2 choose 0 = 1

Perl 5.10.1, Math::BigInt 1.95.

    using 5.10.1, Math::BigInt 1.89 I get 
    2 choose 0 = 3
2 choose 0 = 3
2 choose 0 = 3
2 choose 0 = 3

    [download]

    I then updated to Math::BigInt 1.997 and I get

    2 choose 0 = 1
2 choose 0 = 1
2 choose 0 = 1
2 choose 0 = 1

    [download]

    Looks like you found a bug that's been fixed. (and helped me update...)
