Thanks.

Would you mind letting me take over this one?  I found a case where
pre-expansion with an index expands way too many symbol tables.  Fixing
this will necessitate changing the pre-expansion API, plus maybe some
other things.

I think it would be simpler for me to fix up the index code first, then
update this patch to fit.  Also I would be able to test this patch for
the over-eager expansion problem as well.

I'm out next week but I will finish up this work the week after.

Tom
