Honestly, I just modeled this after the similar code in the Linux
kernel thread patches.  Using a reference parameter for the offset
would be fine and I don't mind making that change.  I don't think that
we are going to add more things to that structure in the future.  The
field generally has everything else you want to know other than the
offset.
