I wonder what made you skip patches #1 and #3. I got some feedback by
Laurent for patch #1. In the end it was Laurent's "I don't have a string
preference here." vs me thinking that the patch is good as is. Was that
the reason to skip it? Patch #3 depends on patch #1.

Would it help to resent?

Best regards
Uwe
