Doesn't surprise me.  It's a hairy subject, and judging from the
comments embedded in the code, none of the contributors so far have
shown a complete grasp of the issues. :-)

Everybody who uses this code uses it in a completely ideosyncratic
way.  That's what makes it so frustrating to try to unify the
changes.
