Even if they are still worthwhile, I'd just put them in the core code rather
than having the additional module.  Too trivial for it to make sense
in a utility module.

I'm inclined to agree with Lars that the recent changes reduce the argument for
having these to marginal at best.  Bad luck for crossing with those!
