I hope so, but you're right it's not guaranteed right now. > I've seen quite some weird stuff happen (for example, the first version > of the patch should _always_ end up in an infinite loop, but it didn't > at first), and given that this part of the code can make the difference > between "works" and "hangs with black screen", I'll rather be paranoid > about these issues. Well when you put it that way :) My only concern is that if we get too paranoid it gets harder to maintain and test all of the code paths. Thanks for your patch. It was definitely an improvement.
