Yeah. I'm not really going to be able to justify the time for that -
this is code that dates back a long way, there's undoubtedly
subtleties throughout and the potential for breaking things is pretty
significant (plus I'm certainly not sure that I understand it all - I
grew up on actual CPUs, not these awful segmented things). I'll figure
out something we can use locally and leave this for now. Thanks for
the feedback!
