That does seem a little excessive, doesn't it? :-)

I'll merge and nominate for backport when I get to a computer.

I wanted to write a regression test too, but got stuck there -- was
looking for the right place to add it and something that already
exercises that version API to use as a starting point.

The test suite (without a new regression test) didn't throw up any complaints.

Btw, while looking at this, I found we also aren't copying the
'external' flag (or file_external, I don't have the name handy at the
moment), so I'll fix that too.

AFAICT we're copying/translating everything else that has a
representation in the older struct. So, just the lock and external
flags are missing.

Cool. I'll add your vote when I nominate it...

Cheers,
