Yeah, I suppose for valgrind it might work after all (even though the
code looks pretty scary); I must have confused it with something else.
Go ahead if you think this is worth the trouble and it doesn't break
anything.

I'm convinced that _something_ should be done to _command_offset() -
it's too difficult to achieve that functionality currently.  Not exactly
sure whether it's the above, or if some more extensive changes (as said,
dunno exactly what) would produce even better results.
