We will always assign "unknown failure" as a last resort. Not a big deal, but just something I noticed while reading this related to what's going on in patch 4. Also, s/unkown/unknown/, but that is present in the pre-image. I hope we don't need to retain it for bug-for-bug plumbing compatibility. :) (I guess the dead store of "" was present in the original, too, for that matter). -Peff PS Sorry for all the nit-picky comments. I was just going down the Coverity rabbit hole and didn't really review the rest of the series. But I wanted to say that the numbers you are seeing are very cool!
