Yep, I said "less awkwarness than previous", a pretty contrived way to say
better:-)

That is why the "fs" variable in process_file is declared "static", and
why I wrote "some hidden awkwarness".
I did want to avoid a malloc because then who would free the struct?
addScript cannot to it systematically because builtins are static. Or it
would have to create an on purpose struct, but I then that would be more
awkwarness, and malloc/free to pass arguments between functions is not
efficient nor very elegant.
So the "static" option looked like the simplest & most elegant version.

Indeed. v22 attached with better comments.
