If you like it, please take it over and add your comments and signoff
and send it in.  The second part won't come up in your testing, and could
be made a separate patch if you prefer: it's a related point that struck
me while I was playing with a different approach.

I'm sorely tempted to leave a dangerous pair of eyes off the Cc,
but that too would be unfair.

This patch looks good to me.

Larry, does Hugh's patch survive your testing?
