As aaron said in the original thread, using the nt_list macros can leave the
current list in-place but avoids open-coding it again. this would be the
easiest quick-term fix, but still needs someone to do and test it...

IMO a switch to a struct list shouldn't go into the stable branch anyway (at
least not that quickly)
