Yes, sounds good.

Yes, that's fine.

Well, it's not clear yet whether this really makes a difference, but it
could -- from my test runs I haven't seen any indication for that but
I'd rather let upstream decide.

BTW, SPAdes fails during linking when I give it my new 1.0-4 in a local
apt repo. I'll need to investigate whether this is connected to my
changes or not, but it'll have to wait until later today.

Cheers
Sascha
