Perhaps there should be a flag available to select which behaviour, set so that if -DDEBUGMAX was passed to the compiler, the nested version would be provided, otherwise the non-nested version.
This way, it can be used to locate bugs, like the floppy.c bug that was located earlier...
Best wishes from Riley.
