===C-based code (and possibly others) improperly validates===
Much of the code here does not check to make sure that the bitcoin addresses are 25-bytes. Hence, testing using the C-based code shows that it validates the invalid six-character bitcoin address "BZbvjr". However, trying to send to this address using the standard bitcoin client will naturally produce an error. I have edited the Perl implementation to make it work correctly, but someone who is a better coder than I should do it for the other languages too.
