Indeed, the world would be a more efficient place if we all did everything perfectly all the time. Sadly, that's not how it works. :) This version looks good to me. Thanks for modernizing things. I don't think it's worth re-rolling, but one thing to think about for future cleanups: you split the patches by touched area, not by functionality. So the first three patches have a "while we're here..." that has to explain why dropping the "static" is the right thing over and over. If you instead did the error-handling fixes independently first, then you could lump the "static" cleanups together with one explanation (possibly even just as part of the 4th patch). -Peff
