Unlike the original, options->filter will have excess higher bit all
on, in addition to all the filter bits except for the all-or-none
bit.  I do not know offhand if that makes the difference, but I
trust that you have audited all uses of the options->filter flag
word and these high bits are truly unused and the difference does
not matter.

... is exactly I wrote in the NEEDSWORK comment I gave you in my
earlier review.  Excellent.

Good.

Thanks for noticing and fixing the long-standing issue.
