I did banking code in COBOL for the 2K issue... there not much worse
than realigning structs by column number in a sort control card XD (I
personally 'killed' 120000 customers during preproduction deployment
since they didn't match and were marked inactive:P)

Anyway I'm used to code reviews, they asks for them a lot (for safety
software which has to be compliant and so on). At least they didn't ask
(YET) for formal proof of correctness :P

The advantage in doing these small patches is that's relatively easy
(like bzr bisect IIRC) to pinpoint where shit happened...
