Good find.  This function is clearly trying to do too many things and hence has become
rather error prone.  Still fixing that is a job for another day.

Alex, if you have a chance to take a look at this as well it would be great.
In the meantime I've queued it up in the fixes-togreg branch of iio.git

Thanks,

Jonathan
