no problem ... i just wasnt sure if it was a "people are overloaded and havent 
gotten a chance to review" or "people have reviewed just havent posted an 
opinion one way or the other"

indeed ... that would go from 3 internal linear searches to 2 as the final 
case would be calling internal_lookup() ...

if we break up the the lookup_internal() up completely, splitting the creation 
of the variable into say "create_internal()", we could kill off the last 
linear search

sure, ive attached two versions ... the first is just the previous patch with 
your requested changes while the second is that plus breaking up the 
internal_lookup() function into lookup_only_internal() and 
create_internal() ... doesnt matter to me which of these patches are accepted 
as they both accomplish my original goal :)
