Entirely independent of (Y) ... the sort flags only apply to the order
of outputs.  The actual scan is always in breadth-first order no matter
what flags have been passed in.

Looking at this leads me to believe that the (Y) patch may have been
missing some curly braces.  Either that or the indendation is wrong.

There's one extra hunk at the top here to skip initializing a data
structure if it's never going to be used.
