When do you calculate a private address for a 56bit puzzle?

This "trick" is explained here and in LBC thread.
If someone spends PART of puzzle56, then Arulbero (or anyone who is capable of) can spend the rest.

I guess, this doesn't prove regular BTC wallets to be vulnerable, as their location in 2^159 address space is unknown.

Anyway huge respect to arulbero. He definitely didn't sleep at math classes.
