The model count == 0 patch looks unproblematic, although you removed a blank line unnecessarily.
Could you regenerate it without that inadvertent change?

The prefix defined patch is a bit more complex; in particular, you've removed a number of cases.
Those changes don't look a priori wrong, but I'd like to make sure this gets well tested.  What
testing have you done on it?
