I've over-ridden a lot of cdbi internals since I've been using it, and
that is definately not something I'd ever consider over-riding.

I kind of assumed that was all it was doing anyway - so I'd be glad to
see it optimised away as much as possible, but I still don't see it as
a significant bottleneck.
