I had exactly such helpers in mind.
The lpt code translates often LEB numbers in both direction.
So, the helpers should have more than one user.
Long story short, I don't force you to add such helper and such.
Just thought while you are here you can try to make the code more
readable.
I think we both agree that lpt.c is not really review friendly. ;)
Thanks,
