OK, thanks, to try to help finish convincing you (;-)
I've prepared a patch along the lines suggested.
For example, it changes this:

  bset_directory (b, current_buffer ? BVAR (current_buffer, directory) : Qnil);

back to this:

  b->directory = current_buffer ? current_buffer->directory : Qnil;

It's a bit long (it removes over a thousand lines of code from Emacs,
net) so I've attached the compressed version.  Comments welcome.
