Yes - I had noticed.
I even wondered if I should grab a snapshot to try it, but decided to
wait until the churn of check-ins stopped...

I think you missed revising some copyright dates though!

This all sounds very good.
Is it OK for us to try it out on other hosts?

Is it feasible that the compiler can resolve that indirection at compile

all...) though this seems unlikely for any reasonably complicated bit of
code...
