_Please_ describe the completely random strange constants, and why they changed.

What is "361", and why did 360 use to work but no longer does?

I've pulled this, because I'm sure it fixes a bug, but neither the
pull message nor the commit have acceptable explanations.

And honestly, the code should be fixed too. Having a random constant
like that with no explanation for the completely random value is not
ok.
