Well, a lot changed after that, some of which broke it again.

This whole const thing was badly done and wasted a lot of developer power.
Not having working source-changes-digests does not make it better.

Maybe we are going to see another few bounces of mbuf -> const mbuf -> mbuf
in the next weeks ;-)
