Éric Araujo <mer...@netwok.org> added the comment: gawel confirmed on IRC that this was an oversight. On second thought, I decided to remove the constant, which I deemed unneeded: it doesn’t save time for programmers (there is code checking various subsets of the fields everywhere, just one constant does not reduce code significantly), and I don’t think it saves computer time either (local literals vs. global lookup—unprofiled though). Alexis pulled my change (7e1118583e5f).
