We prove that if x^m + c*x^n permutes the prime field GF(p), where m>n>0 and
c is in GF(p)^*, then gcd(m-n,p-1) > sqrt{p} - 1. Conversely, we prove that if
q>=4 and m>n>0 are fixed and satisfy gcd(m-n,q-1) > 2q*(log log q)/(log q),
then there exist permutation binomials over GF(q) of the form x^m + c*x^n if
and only if gcd(m,n,q-1) = 1.
