Andrea, I already told you that I refuse to apply patches that include
this many obvious cases of pure obfuscation.

As I already told you in an earlier mail, your state machine only has two
states, not three like the code makes you believe. Gratuitous changes like
that that only show that the writer didn't actually _think_ about the code
is not something I want at any stage, much less now.
