That's why when I originally brought the point up I said
"but I'm not sure it's worth rearranging that code"...
If you want to neaten things up so that we pick the initial
level for faults (0 or 1 depending on va_size) in one place,
then you need to rearrange the code. If you don't want to
rearrange that bit of code you can leave it all as it is, but
you don't get the neat "only one place makes this decision"
structure. You could argue either way and I don't much mind
which we do.

(Incidentally the pseudocode is not always a good guide
for the structure of code; sometimes it makes clear choices,
but sometimes it makes confusing choices.)
