Thanks for this code, David. I was just sitting down to eliminate all
warnings in the compilation of notmuch, so this was very
convenient. I've committed this now.

I do think the code is a bit harder to read now, but I'm willing to let
maintainership of nasty bits of emacs code drift from me to you for
things like this. ;-)

And meanwhile, the fact that we now have a framework for automated
testing of emacs code makes me much more comfortable about changes like
this. (Not that I think that we necessarily have good coverage of the
code being tested here, but it's now a very small step from where we are
to adding that coverage.)

Thanks again,
