You find it best, but I don't agree. I think MODE is nice for the
added efficiency (which my implementation doesn't use). I've never
needed a generic PREDICATE argument, but I did use MODE.
Another thing I don't like about that change is that it mixes the
namespaces -- PREDICATE would silently misbehave work if your function
happens to be named `executable' or `readable'. It may not be a
problem in practice, but I'd prefer to keep the namespaces separate.

Maybe we should revert to using OR-ed numbers. :-)
