Comment (by ChaiTRex):

 Apologies for the delay: I had no power for a while and had to restart.
 The results before the patch are attached and point out only this bug. The
 results after the patch point out no bugs:

 {{{

 }}}

 So, `Int`s look good on my end, at least up to an expression nesting depth
 of two (''i.e.'', up to something like `(a + b)*(c + d)`).

 For any future needs, I've put a newly-multithreaded version of the tester
 on GitHub at [https://github.com/ChaiTRex/ConstantFoldingTest
 ChaiTRex/ConstantFoldingTest].
