Comment (by shatz@…):

 Hi,

 My previous comment was wrong. Because of my unfamiliarity with github, I
 was testing the version after the first patch, not after the second patch.
 The second version looks o.k.
 Actually, it is pretty close to my proposed variant above. A bit slower
 than mine, but a difference in speed is not much above noise level.

 Good job, John. Thank you.

 Regards,
 Michael
