Johan's patch adding test and set accessor inline functions for the new flag follows the style of the existing accessor inline functions for previously existing flags, for the sake of consistency. If we are going to use the new style (const for test functions, assign_bit() for set functions) for the new flag, then we should also change all existing ones for consistency. In terms of patch splitting, would it be most kosher to have one patch that updates the style of existing accessor inline functions, and then the interesting patch that adds the new flag? M~
