That's for sure. If you just to try to `grok everything,' you'll
quickly go insane; there's just too much code, and much of it can be
confusing if you just skim it (it isn't the most well-organized code in
the world).
Trying to figure how it does one particular thing is usually (!)
straight-forward though.
