While on this topic, can we please remove CHECK_MAP_POS from within very
frequently called nested constructs? This is a terrible speed killer, and
I've never seen it catch a bug. We'll find more bugs if the speed of
--enable-debug=yes is increased, so that more people will use it. At the
moment, it seems I'm the only one who does. And I don't want to be
everyone else's guinea pig.
