See the comments in the patch for more information >> about these. Hi Mark, I'm really sorry I haven't reviewed this patch yet, or commented on your arguments for handling %nil more pervasively. From skimming the emails, your arguments look persuasive, but I'm afraid detailed review will have to wait a bit longer, as I'm going to be on holiday and away from email for a couple of weeks. I'm sorry about that, and really appreciate your work on this area. Regards, Neil
