I missed this message! You should have told me and I would have looked
into it.

Thanks a lot for the patch. I agree that the patch looks correct,
but I'm a little confused by the name of the new function (the _full
suffix suggests that the lookup is always a full search).

Traditionally, we've used a _1 suffix instead, which is very
unimaginative and yet so convenient.  I was going to change
your patch this way, but in the end, I'm just thinking I should
just add the parameter and update all callers. There are not that
many. I suspect you might have thought about this too, only to
just try the minimum change.

Would it be OK with you if I made that change instead?
