I think most of the complexity was due to all the conditional
assembly. A lot of things were tried during development and at
some point something 'stuck' and became a working base. Then all further
development seemed to add complexity to do endruns around problems
or inefficiencies with the base piece.
Conceptually it really isn't that big a deal. I'll document the
routines more in the next patch.
