Do you plan to?
While this could find problems in the unittests or the core OF code,
the vast majority of the problems are likely in the users and this
doesn't help with those. This whole issue of ref counts has been
discussed some and probably needs to be redesigned or instrumented in
a way that users can validate. But then it is pretty low priority
given that ref counts only matter on pseries.

Maybe. It doesn't have such a high priority in my task list...

I agree most issues are in the users.
However, I did find one issue in the core code.
Note that the reference counts may become more important in the future,
as OF_OVERLAY selects OF_DYNAMIC.

In personal conversations with technical people, I call myself a hacker. But
when I'm talking to journalists I just say "programmer" or something like that.
