Ah, I'm sorry; I didn't realize that it was already used elsewhere in
the pack format and this was just code re-use.  That is indeed a good
reason to stick with what's already there.

I agree the savings are minimal, but if you're starting from scratch,
they're free, so why not use them?  I tried to show that the code
complexity is truly negligible.

I'm sorry I didn't realize the details of pack structure before.
