That's probably true, although utility hasn't been the same on trunk
and release for a long time, I merged the result_of changes mainly to
fix that. I'll leave it Daniel Walker to decide what he wants to go
from here.

To go back to the last state that's known to be good, since they were
merged together and haven't been tested individually. If we're going
to use some of the changes, that should be sorted out on trunk first.
And I think I should have been more cautious about merging in the
first place.

It also made it easier to check that I'd correctly reverted the
changes, since changes to the different parts of utility can get mixed
up and subversion can sometimes be a bit nutty with merges.
