Yep, I remember trying to understand that part from a rather
superficial study of the sources.  Nemo's commentary will no doubt
prove itself invaluable once again, as soon as I track it down (time
to print a copy).  And thanks to Cinap for his comments, as usual very
much to the point.

Why I find all this so confusing after long years in the business
beats me.  Must be old age.  I guess I should be grateful it's not
Linux I am trying to make sense of.
