> Markus, what have you done to ensure your patches don't break anything?

I would expect that this update step will not change the run time behaviour
for the OCRDMA module. I guess that it will influence the run time
characteristics for compilation of three adjusted source files besides
the proposed coding style improvements.

Further update steps change other source code places. I hope that their
impact can be clarified according to your expectations for each shown update
possibility separately. Some of them got a bit of acceptance already.

How would you like to reduce any remaining software development concerns here?

Regards,
Markus
