Thanks! Yeah its one of the rougher edges I've worked with and I'm glad I finally got around to fixing it. > > > I have some follow on work which I'll build on top of this series, but > > since this was already getting a bit lengthy at 35 patches I'll save > > that for another time. > > In addition to my other suggestions for stuff to put on top, which I see > now you may have just had in your local tree but didn't submit, I think > this makes sense: Yes these changes make sense, though I'll need to tweak them to avoid some memory leaks. I'll probably go ahead and squash it into the two patches which effect those two functions.
