Thanks to Derrick Stolee for highlighting missing coverage.

In the case of "certainties[i] = CERTAINTY_NOT_CALCULATED" this was
defeating an optimization that preserved results of calculations
between line-matching passes. This had caused other code to never
be executed - that code is now executed and only discards calculation
results that are no longer valid.

In the case of "max_search_distance_b = 0" this was never executed
because another statement was added earlier in the function to return
early in such a case.

If it's OK with you, I can squash this into your existing patch in the 
blame-ignore patch set.

Thanks,

Thanks, both.  That'd make my life easier ;-) by allowing me to
ignore this patch for now, knowing you two are on top of the issue.
