I favor it for now, but I think being more aggressive is a good thing. #define REGEX_COUNT 265 #define MACH_LIST_SIZE_LIMIT 181 #define FIX_COUNT 223 I believe that headers have likely improved in the last decade. I do doubt that there are twice as many actively needed patches to headers required now versus then.
