Well, I don't think so...
I don't like it if there is a possibility doing it with an initializer, but=
in=20
other cases it may increase readability, too...

There was a discussion about SET_MODULE_OWNER here on the list, once.
You can find it here:

At the end Rusty made a small patch that never made it into the mainline tr=
ee=20
(even if I think it should have...) His mail with the patch can be found at:

=3D2

(I like the analogy to a mainframe ;-)
