But what steps should we use on the gain? How do we validate a 1-1
mapping when we don't know the gain code?
The advantage of comparing a gain code to a gain and back again is that
it verifies the exactness of the conversion (which is what the patch for
3/3 corrects).

Yes, and right now our helpers are ... wrong! Which this test
highlights.
Maybe should I concentrate on trying to merge the fix without the test?
It seems testing this seems to be controversial :-(
