+ o Code simplifications and refactorings:
+ - Remove the pure attribute from all functions that used it previously.
+ In many cases this we assigned it incorrectly, because the functions
+ might assert or call impure functions, and we don't have evidence
+ that keeping the pure attribute is worthwhile. Implements changes
+ suggested in ticket 4421.
