Small nit, but please add this as the first declaration, to keep the
"upside-down x-mas tree" look. I know some of the other functions in
this file don't follow that (which should be cleaned up some day), but
I'd like to avoid adding more that breaks the aesthetic of the code.

I think you meant "if (!fops)".
