And I was reviewing the patch to distract me from that ;-)
Any chance you can talk your son into running for president?

Arrg, sorry, I missed that pos. Shouldn't review "just this one patch
before leaving for the weekend" ...

Which I admittedly still have to do.

No, please leave it, I guess I was just confused why you had this iter
variable in the first place.

No, I insist on some serious bike shedding here ;-)

I will test it quickly on Monday and the give you at least a Tested-by
(since I just disqualified myself for anything else).
