To me is seems wrong too, but is nevertheless the case. Look carefully
at the scoring rules at
http://shootout.alioth.debian.org/gp4/benchmark.php?test=all&lang=all#about
See http://alioth.debian.org/forum/forum.php?thread_id=2671&forum_id=999
for the discussion. Maybe as an indirect result result, two of the
worst scoring benchmarks (both threading related) were removed from the
default scoring set, the one you get when you choose "reset".
