I usually don't see the "price > 10^8" bug, either. It may have been
permanently gone by the time you looked for it. But it was there for a day
or so.
I know the occasional spurious Missing coming back is a months-old issue
at least, and Dan Delouis confirmed it still exists.
I've inoculated my code against both bugs, so I may not notice when they
go away.
