This is why I suggest that we limit the "re-use an existing vma for a new

differences at all. There's no spreading on splitting. Merging is trivial.

That looks like it should work.

Now, admittedly, I'm really hopped up on cough medication, so the feeling
of this solving all the problems in the universe may not be entirely
accurate. But it feels so _right_.

I hope if feels right when I'm off my meds too.

I am not on any cough meds, and your patch looks right.
OTOH, maybe I should be on some kind of cold meds, because
I haven't been feeling right all week...
