Not necessarily.. they were talking about renaming "damage" to "damage_new" 
and making the necessary changes to it.  Then make a new function "damage" 
that has the same prototype as the old damage function.  This damage function 
just calls damage_new with a default value for the added argument.  Your old 
calls to damage will call the damage function, which calls damage_new with 
default values for added arguments.
So you don't need to change references to damage.  You can leave them the 
same.  You now just use damage_new when you need access to that new argument.

Are we reading the mails before we reply?
