 This may just be a conversation starter, but I know these things to be
 true:

 1) there is duplicated code spread between pingback( ) and do_enclose(
 )[[BR]]
 2) If your post contains a bunch of links to your own site, and you save
 your post in the admin, you will ended up with memory leaks all over the
 place / seg faults / etc when you get hammered by HEAD requests triggered
 by the immediate cron that is spawned by the post being saved[[BR]]
 3) you probably don't need to trackback yourself anyways

 I moved some dupe code into functions and added some checks so we don't
 ping ourself when saving
