This compiles fine in a full environment, and it's the direction we
need to go, so these are applied.  We will keep a close eye on things,
but I suspect any issues will show up right away, and should be easy
to spot with high enough logging.

Thanks for all the work on this, Scott.  It's been nagging me, and I
think this will be a great benefit in the long run.
