There may well be bugs.  I am fine with reviewing patches to improve
the code in this area, but I don't plan to take it upon myself to
rewrite that code.  Either it's working as expected, or nobody's using
it, because we're not getting any bug reports.

So unless there are objections to the patch as posted, I'm going to
apply that next week.  This in no way precludes more work in this area
later, but since we're likely to break third-party code with this
change, we might as well get it out of the way as early in the release
cycle as possible.
