Ahh. Now the motivation of the previous patch is clearer. Have you considered hinting at the motivation here in the previous commit message (e.g., "this gets us part of the way towards ...")?

Very satisfying :-).

I get that this was copy/pasted from elsewhere, but it would be nice to replace the "every if statement ends in 'return 0' to keep them mutually exclusive" with else if statements instead:

Extra newline here (after the definition of packfile_config())?

The rest all looks good.
