Based on my experience so far, I have to agree with Pedro.
But if you do have a superior solution, we'll take a look.
I still have to tell you that I won't like it if your solution
makes the code harder to read. Sometimes, that's OK because it
helps achieving portability.  But when there is no such need for
portability, it just gets in the way. Let's also be pragmatic,
here and fix the problems that we know we have.
