Mostly looks good.

Should be static.

This looks really strange, we didn't remove any old lookup code and the
DT lookup jumps to found by iself so why are we adding code here?

This is all getting *really* complicated and illegible.  I'm not sure
what the best way to structure is but erroring out early looks useful.
