Great patches, I hope the review helped. Other than my minor comments, I think the patches look good, so it's a good time for other reviewers to take a look. Would be good to get an ack from Ben, Anton, or Paul too at some point. These will clash spectacularly with my exception vector rework unfortunately, but that's how it goes. I can help with rebasing if mine ends up going in first. Thanks, Nick
