Probably not much, but I don't have time to maintain a patch.
It's ok that 4.3 does not have NMASTER, I will just stay with 4.3
and not bother you with any bug reports for 4.3, promised.

Btw, what is the preferred way to use a custom config.h with 4.5?

I wouldn't have used the word stupid, but I personally think
excessively concentrating on SLOC tends to lead to more contorted,
difficult to read/modify code than making the goal that programs have
a well-defined purpose with no more AND NO LESS features than are
relevant for this purpose. I particularly thinks it's a mistake to
remove well-thought out, useful features because it removes lines of
code.

Not at all. I think the idea is quite stupid, YMMV.

Forget about 1). Using config.h saves us from incompatibilites and
makes it possible to use C macros to make the hotkey definitions
