I agree. The code is obviously broken in a way that would have been
noticed if it were in wide use, and it is too complicated for mere
mortals to fix or maintain. I suggest we simply remove it for now, and
if anyone wants to reintroduce it, we can review the code *and* the
justification for the approach from scratch (in which case we should
consider factoring out the algo agnostics plumbing in a way that
allows it to be reused by other architectures as well)
