Since I'm doing this for fun.. it's never a waste of my time!

If 233 is no problem.. then surely 466 won't be either.. and if 466 
isn't... etc etc..

I'd say it's a sizeable benefit for very little change (considering I also 
saved 23Kb harddisk space on 1 kcm module.. and I have 100 kcm_*.so files 
on my disk.)
