Hi Nick,

Good idea, I hadn't thought of embedding it all in a feature section.It may not work currently because you get those ftr_alt_97 relocation errors with the "else" parts because relative branches to other code need to be direct and I think reachable from both places.
I thought about this a bit more. One potential issue will be profiling - perf annotate will match the samples against the unpatched code which could be very confusing. Anton
