Seems like a good set of patches.  I've committed a few of the ones easily in 
scope for a morning's activities, and assigned most of the remainder to 
individuals or mailing lists who may well take an interest in them.  I'll work 
through a few more as time permits this afternoon.

Something that would be really nice is to have decent regression tests for 
some of these changes that I could commit to src/tools/regression/... :-)
