I'm still not happy here.

I don't find leftmost/rightmost to be a "progress" from the previous
naming. If you really want to change to avoid in_core() at the end, then
call them first_thread_sibling() and last_thread_sibling().

Then you change:

  .../... to:

Any reason you are making it out of line other than gratuituous
bloat ? :-)

Same.

Ben.
