Stefan, adding extra argument turned to be a train wreck. I am afraid, if I
cannot get help on how to extend primitives, I am giving up at this point.


Adding a dummy argument to Fbobp like this:

I am defining Bbobp, Fbobp, Sbobp just as it's done with any other primitive
with an optional argument. `Fbobp` is never used at C level, so the above diff
is complete and could be run as it is.
