Sorry about that, I actually had three people review my code internally,
then I managed to send out an old version. 100% guilty of submitting
code when I needed sleep. As for the change, that was in response
to a request from Andrew to make the update function less racy.

Should I resend a correct v2 now that the thread exists?
