Yeah, that was part of it...

Hi. I'm sorry about the delay, I ran into various life/software things,
and found that this topic required a lot of continuous "sit down for a
day and work on it" attention from me v.s. some other topics where I'd
deal with interruption better.

Then I was hoping that the merger of your bundle.c changes would come a
bit earlier before the rc, but they pretty much coincided, and since the
rc dropped I've been hesitant to send a very large topic to the list
(c.f. e.g. [1]).

Maybe I should just bite the bullet and submit it anyway, what do you
think?
