Yes. And using a pointer to unsigned long would neither make the code a
lot more readable, I am afraid.

I see. Bad luck then :(

Thanks for confirming you also had a look.

Okay, the function is not exactly pretty, but my comments have been
addressed and it fixes a serious bug, so:

Still, if someone has ideas how to make the function more readable, we
could incrementally improve it.

Kind regards,
