The idea is to remove it until we have it properly implemented, as
suggest by Kazutaka - leaving in fragments of unimplemented
functionality is bound to cause the confusion we have right now. I'd
actually love to put it back rather sooner or later, but it needs to be
done properly.

The patch you sent just passes the "copies" argument on to read_object
and write_object calls. I think that's incorrected because my earlier
patched move the ceiling for it from these functions into the caller.
I think that's what the patch I sent does, but I'm at a conference and
still jetlagged, so please double check it.
