One more thing. Please do reply to the rest of my questions and
concerns on the original patch set. You tend to just address most of
the feedback in the next revision, but I'd appreciate it if you could
reply at least with a simple "ok" or more elaborate answer where
warranted. It makes the code reviewing process a bit easier.

There are still big-endian concerns and an error propagation question
at least that you haven't addressed neither in the follow up patches
nor in an email reply. Please do so, preferably both.
