If you can fix the patch to not copy surface state in create_similar,
then feel free to commit it. You've seen the bug, so you're in a
good position to test the fix.

As for the longer term cleanups, I certainly won't complain if you
want to work on them, but they should not hold up the fix for your
bug.
