I think that comment may be a bit misleading as the changes are just
switching from one set of inlines to another. Essentially the same
sequential check takes place in the hex2chr inlined function which is
being used to replace the "one table lookup for each". An optimizing
compiler will likely eliminate any difference between the before and
after patch versions. Nothing immediately comes to mind as an alternate
comment though, so I'm not proposing any changes to the comment.
Right, the table lookups for isxdigit and hexval are not duplicated when
compiling with -O2.
