This in unrelated to my change.

+ Changbin, Zhenyu (authors of 3aff3512802) and Zhi (author of
054f4eba2a298) in case there's any interest in fixing this up.
Otherwise I don't think these tiny helpful functions were meant to be
used somewhere but are not, so there's not much value in cleaning them
up.
