Andrew,
I've had some concerns wrt. this patch - especially the additional
complexity - and I have to say I am not convinced that this is really
needed. Our past experience in this area suggests that more tricky code
leads to different corner cases. So I am really reluctant to add more
complexity without any real world reports.
