Thanks... I think I already received this patch from you, just
I hadn't gotten around to commenting yet.

Anyway, the code used to look like this, just I thought it was
ugly, since the code was basically looking like case statements
anyway.  (And, the numbers where never "magic" because of the
context, etc.)

However, the structure isn't really like a case statement,
because of all the flags stuff (which I also haven't commented
on yet, sorry... I'm getting there!)

Anyway, I'm convinced ;)
