Just out of curiosity, what's the advantage of the second form?

Both keep left-parenthesis away from 'open', so there's no "open()",
but it's more obvious which symbol is being repaired.  After all,
it's also common to put pointer expressions in parentheses, and someone
might forget what the point of the change was and remove it during a
cleanup.
