Yes. That's how I bumped into the bug fixed in c73669c0. That tool has
been tremendously helpful.

Yeah, I'm sure there are tons of small things. I'll have to take a small
break and read through the patch myself after a few days. But I'd like
to get this committed pretty soon. I believe everyone agrees with the
big picture, even if there's some little tweaking left to do. It's a
pain to maintain as a patch, and I believe the FPW compression patch is
waiting for this to land.
