Hmm. My merge resolution is different, but I think I did it right.

Yours does

        ret = alloc_snapshot(&global_trace);

and I think it should be

        ret = alloc_snapshot(tr);

but you should double-check it. I only looked at the code, I didn't
actually *test* anything.

(There's a few other differences, but they are just ordering of the
function declarations).

Btw, I'd prefer to *not* see the full patch in the pull request if
it's this big. For small stuff, sure. For a multi-thousand-line patch?
I'm not reading those in a mail-reader anyway.
