As part of the 2.0 patches, I took a first try at refactoring the
init/exit sequences to maintain the same fail paths but minimizing
dependencies across structures. One of the big parts have been the bad
block initialization, which now is much cleaner, but still needs more
work to be as I would like it to. Patches are very welcome :)
