Other people's bad example is no justification for my misbehaviour. ;)

This patch doesn't fix anything that is wrong, and it doesn't add
functionality that isn't there right now.  Performance is the least
important aspect of computing, unless it has an impact on
functionality as well. (audio without glitches and such)

Besides, Marcelo didn't even take my fixes for the zlib yet, so there
is more important stuff in the queue.
