Here's a slightly edited version of this patch from reviewing, fixing the
following:
* Fix a compiler warning by passing a pointer to skey to
systable_beginscan() (it's an array already)
* Edit some comments
The patch works as expected (at least, i don't see any remaining issues).
I'm going to mark this ready for committer.
