I agree.

Without this patch Phase1, Phase2, and Phase6 are done in statictree
order, and Phase3, Phase4, and Phase5 are done Parents before
children.

I don't see Phase1 being used anywhere.  Phase2 is handled with the
patch.  I think Phase6 should be updated, and I can send a patch.

Ron?

Thanks,
