One other thing:  in the 'brent' function, you're setting m to
randrange(1, n).  What's the purpose of this?  It looks to me as
though m controls the number of Pollard-Rho iterations that are
clumped together at one time (before doing a gcd operation), and using
a random number for this doesn't make a lot of sense to me.
