At the risk of sounding stupid...
I'm trying to find the 1-sector buffer that the comment claims exist. You
seem to be adding 2 sectors for the L path table, and 2 for the M, which
would leave a blank after each one (which is needed iirc). But I don't see
any extra sectors before the L path table. Is it actually there, or is this=
a
phantom comment?
A side note on conventions: We're using /* XXX foo */ for todo's in the code
instead of /* FIXME: foo */.
Other than that I think the patch is some good progress! Thanks.
