I'm using a non-fatal error checking instead of BUG_ON. BUG_ON was a more
aggressive way that I use to find problem initiallly.

I reformatted most of the patch to be 80 column limited. I simplified a
number of names, but I'm open to suggestions and patches to how to go

make this more mergable.

Correct. This has been removed.

I've applied Daniel Walker's changes as well.
