The tail recursion (and the one in the orginal) may want to be trivially converted to iteration with "goto".

It is somewhat surprising that we didn't have any external interface to expose a sub-part of the cache_tree at all so far. It may be because the API was so well designed that the abstraction did not have to be exposed. I dunno.
