Perhaps pinfo should have its own scope that is between ep and

Evan, when do you plan to merge it?

Well, I've had absolutely zero feedback on it so far, so I'm not sure
if that's a good sign or a bad one...

I was planning on taking it slow, maybe merging it this weekend if
nobody raised any objections. I can merge it basically right now
though if you can use it - since it doesn't touch any existing code
it's not that disruptive. I just didn't want to merge it before the
general design had gotten a couple of acks on the list, since API
changes after it's in use are a pain.

The stuff that works has been merged in revision 45746. It should be
usable for what you need in pinfo. There's lots more to do before its
ready to replace emem in the general case though.
