REVISION SUMMARY
  When you start reading about mergecopies(), you want to know what it
  is, not that there are different implementations depending on config,
  so this patch moves that comment to the end.
  
  By the way, we don't seem to define what "copytracing" is. I'm just
  leaving it that way because I don't know what it is myself. It seems
  to be referred to only on mergecopies() (and not in pathcopies(), for
  example), so maybe "copytracing" is supposed to be exactly what
  mergecopies() does?
