Oh, I don't disagree with you.  As I already mentioned, they desperately
need to be rewritten.  However, given that that's not a sanely
back-patchable answer, we have to consider what are the appropriate
semantics for the existing infrastructure.

(Also, if they *were* memory-based then the question of their relation
to 2PC semantics becomes even more urgent.)
