I guess I've over-generalised it a bit too much, that should rather be
done if-and-when, I presume?
It is indeed only used in setup.c and only by the prefix_path_gently
function so static inline then?
Hmm, for single-parameter it should suffice to simply move the parameter
down into the function, like so?:
const char* src;
src = dst;
and carry on as before (obviously also renaming the variables sensibly),
or did you have something else in mind?
(I added two parameters since I was glancing at 'normalize_path_copy_len'
for inspiration, and was thinking about (purely theoretical) re-use in
other cases rather than minimizing it for the time being.)
What do you mean with the "(And not in this patch"... bit; what "final
setup.c"?
