I could do this, sure. But frankly I'm not so sure, if this really
improves the code much. This list will most likely never be extended.
And in this current version, it's easier to compare the values written
with the one described in the errata.
But again, I have no hard feeling here. If it's the general option to
move to the "loop version", then I'll gladly send an updated patch
version.
Thanks,
Stefan
