Heiner submitted a *very* similar patch just now with a straight
variable plus accessor instead of a function and using a name with _msg.
I'm ambivalent on the implementation but prefer the naming here since
that's more the limitation we're trying to express I think (some
hardware does have limiations about multple transfers too).  Can the two
of you come up with something that works for both of you?
