Actually, this still isn't right. As I said to the last person who
reported this, we should be doing a get/put on the ops, not rolling our
own here:

The reporter went silent before we could get this tested, but could you
try, please, because your patch is still hand rolling the ops get/put,
just slightly better than it had been done previously.
