What is wrong with:
usage_table[i] = usage_table[replace];
if (increment)
        usage_table[i]++;

I hate code with the '?' operator in general.  It's a conditional either
way, and at least this way you wouldn't even have to do a store in one
of the two cases 9although if the compiler can't figure out that is the
case already, then it really sucks).

Pauls code at least didn't involve a conditional at all, but on the
other hand is less clear to read.
