I wish I understand what you mean by "unwrap"... ?

I am not yet sure about refcounts, but local_t itself is used in couple of 
places.

Ok, I have started a list on them to keep track, but we need to do them also. 
There is no reason for them not to be refcounts, since so far the ones I see 
are classical refcounts.

I will check when I get over the atomic_t and atomic_long.
