What the point to increase indentation level and produce additional churn? Can't you simply leave functions, unexport them, and call in one conditional of whatever new function is called? I have an impression that split of the series is done in a way that first patches in the series are not optimized to what is done in the last patches in the series. -- With Best Regards, Andy Shevchenko
