Huh.  Fair enough, I guess.

I'm fairly strongly in the other camp -- I almost never find myself
grepping for leaf-node names, but having unions called 'u' and repeating
type or scope information in names both annoy the crap out of me. :)

Anyway, it seems like Jan agrees with you on the naming, so I'll let it
slide.  Can I suggest you call the new fields gdt_addr and gdt_sz, to
match the underscores in the existing fields?

Tim.
