Of course, you are right!
Yes, I partially tested it. But my frequency table didn't contain an
invalid entry. I will fix it.

OK, I will do it. I was thinking about performance but as you mentioned
20 copies are too much. :)

I will prepare the patches with your suggestions.
Thank you very much for your review!
