As rev. 2934 i do not see this patch applied. To recap, it removed some
unneeded local variables (which my compiler wasn't smart enough to
eleminate on it's own -- gcc-4.0 and gcc-HEAD) and simplified some
conditionals and branches.

Back then, i only submitted the changes to dapl_cookie.c to see if such
kind of code simplifications would be accepted or not.

James, can you please elaborate why the patch was rejected?

Thank you,
Bernhard
