Well, simpler was the goal. I didn't really focus on size much. It isn't
really big to begin with.

But yes, it has 5 hooks now, 3 syscalls and lots of comments and all
that under 900 lines, not bad I'd say.

Also I think you wanted something like this? I'm not sure of the LAZY
name, but I can't seem to come up with anything saner atm.
