Thanks for the detailed analysis, I also feel like many of these patches
do not fix actual regression, but I am inclined to take them as long as
they do not darken too much the code. In this case, except the very last
change, I am hesitating.

Shall Pengeng extract the last bit (which is useful) and drop the rest?

Thanks,
Miquèl
