Maybe I attempted to explain and reveal too much.

That's harder.  It's a scripted change.  I don't think breaking it up by
individual sed commands is going to enlighten anyone.  But it would be
easy to break it up by affected file...

...so that these become 5 patches.  Would that be preferable?

Also just as well that you're not merging, as a few stragglers remain
_still_.  However, the size of the problem is getting down to near the
human-remediable scale (fewer than 100).  Most look like they'll be
automatically handleable by my "MR-migrate-stage-2-execute.sh" script.

But I see some exceptions--so far I have spotted wctrans(3) and
wctype(3).  I'll send patches along for those, coverting them to tables.

Regards,
Branden
