extraordinary ?
When we created the OpenOCD JTAG API (Dominic and I at Amontec in 2005 
before any SVN server, any forum ...), we was thinking to provide an 
extensible JTAG layer to OpenOCD allowing to accelerate the JTAG Layer 
Interface! The _mask could be a very important information to have in 
the Low Layer JTAG interface.

Adding NULL in the calling is so complicated for you ?

You do not see because you are not one of the first author of the OPENOCD.
Your patch on JTAG API is a really regression ! :-(
