The only curious things is why you don't do it the simple way.  I
suspect it's because the code is so chaotic you can't use the simple
algorithm, but it's now so tangled that I can't plough past the first
dozen or so global names -- every function call could affect any of them
in ways that only you know (thought I suspect even you don't know
anymore) and I certainly don't have the time to check.
