I initially hesitated to support the drop of

I didn't know that nth_midxed_pack_entry was designed with either
purpose in mind, since it predates midx bitmaps by quite a bit.

However, it seems that the midx bitmap series by Taylor is succeeding
without needing such a translation.

Right, it looks like that function is only called by fill_midx_entry()
where it was inlined.

Thanks,
Taylor
