Heya Neal,
I'm trying to understand your patch (espcially since I'm trying to get
trivfs sorted out in my head).
It appears to:
1) Clean up the syntax a little bit.
2) Avoid the runtime overhead of dereferencing a pointer.
I'm curious as to why you went through the effort. =) #2 doesn't seem
like it would be worth it, so I'm wondering if the former syntax was
prone to typing errors, or if I've completely missed the point.
Thanks for your time!
