Well, having both v and curr available in a function is likely going to
be (a little) confusing, especially if you mean to use curr (and hence
apparently ignore the passed in argument). I'd prefer if you ditched
curr, compared v against current, and used v throughout the
function (perhaps in anticipation of the expectation above to go
away eventually).
