Thank Joel, but this patch has several major issues with the KSA size
calculation, I believe. I've pushed it anyway to the 'joel' branch, then
on top of it I've added several clean-ups and little improvements, and
then on top of it I've added a patch which adds several TODO comments
for you. Please, take a look. I've also sent the patches to you
separately.
