Yes, as I said, I think it's OK.  Maybe better would be if the threaded
version actually checked that the `value' is correct (i.e. is one more
than the previous one) rather than just ignore that argument.

I'm not sure it's better, since, as you say, the values are fixed by
external factors.

Feel free to install,
