Your suspects are correct.

I had a copy of the function in my .emacs with a patch [BAD THING ™]
to exclude some files from size check (it was used for RMAIL).

I don't think I triggered that patch for a long time, I changed my
habits because vm gets damn slow with large mailboxes. Therefore I
ask:

- could it be dangerous?
- could it be useful to others?

Thank you in advance.
