node-pointerstruct but did nothing else, so that the DSA changes would be smaller. 0004 attempted pointer tagging in
thesame commit, which makes it no longer a purely refactoring patch, so that 1) makes it harder to tell what part
causedthe bug and 2) obscures what is necessary for DSA pointers and what was additionally necessary for pointer
tagging.Shared memory support is a prerequisite for a shippable feature, but pointer tagging is (hopefully) a
performanceoptimization. Let's keep them separate.
Totally agreed. I'll separate them in the next version patch. Thank
you for your advice.
