This is a potential problem that is exposed after Brandon kicked the_index out of dir.c (big thanks!) and could be seen as a continuation of bw/dir-c-stops-relying-on-the-index. Also thanks to Elijah for helping analyze this code. The last patch may be debatable. If we go this route, we may end up with plenty of "#define NO_THIS" and "#define NO_THAT" until we finally achieve "#define THIS_IS_TRUE_LIB_CODE" many years later.
