- Why are the reviews so sloppy and useless?

The one I'm answering to is just hillarious and the other one picks
a random commit, claims that it inadvertantly introduced the issue
and is done with it. Really helpful.

Folks, this is not the way it works. It took me a couple of hours to
get this analyzed properly, but I don't see that anyone involved in
this thread has spent more than a few seconds on it.

At least I found a real issue related to this refcount stuff, but I
would have preferred that the people involved in this would have found
it in the first place instead of providing half baken crap.

More care was clearly warranted on my part. I thought I saw the connection with
the previous commit I referenced (it wasn't random!), but clearly didn't dig
deep enough.

Same here. I hadn't looked at it long enough, so while I was hesitant of sending
a full review/ack, I should not have sent a half-arse answer either. Apologies.

Thanks,
Davidlohr
