Stuff like this ought to go below the --- such that git-am and similar
tools throw it out.

These two are inconsistent in that the first does load_flag before
inc(nhit) while the second does it after. I don't think it matters, but
I noticed the inconsistent style and had to tell.


Anyway, patch looks reasonable now. Rest is up to Steve, this is his
code.
