Not sure what to do with that. I made 60 comments when reviewing
version 2 of the patch [1], but it seems you have only addressed a few
of them in version 3. Are you going to process my comments and submit a
version 4? Or are you waiting for me to comment on version 3 first? I'm
afraid I would just have to repeat a lot of what I wrote about version
2, using a lot of my time for little gain. So I would prefer if you
process my previous comments first.
