Yes, with estimate set to true it does not change anything - only
computes number of necessary bits.
I'll send updated patch later on.

is it actually just estimating (i.e. taking a
guess) of how many bits
were needed, or is it actually computing a definitive amount of output
bits?
Also, I would prefer to call it 'estimate_ownly' or
'determine_bits_only'. Or even something like 'dry_run', which is used
a lot in command-line arguments to indicate that it will not actually
perform the operation.
