Cleaned those up.

It is very interesting that this area of code is exercised so infrequently.  I
remember seeing a paper that described a tool that would list codepaths that
are exercised during a test run.  Does that ring a bell?  It seems like this
might be worth looking into more generally.

Yep, looks fine.
