Yeah probably, but frankly the task of redesigning hwlock-allocation is
a bit exceeding my bandwidth for this project. Can we make this a second
step on top of this series? And if so, would be this series acceptable
as-is then (modulo the better include-sorting mentioned by Andy)?
Hope you are well,
Wolfram
