Argh. The part that changes the checks against zero might be a little
theoretical, and thus have no real effect, but the missing cleanups
are not. We should commit the patch. On solaris, I still cannot run
the testsuite (causing an awful machine crash), but I can run the AdaCore
testsuite. That's better than nothing.

Thanks for taking a look! I will commit momentarily.
