This is a good idea. How did you test this change? Did you try a particular test case, or a certain parameter file that uses periodic boundary conditions?
actually I tested it with my private thorn for hydro boundary conditions (with and without direct calls to the low-level interface and with the new and the old versions)... I guess that a similar test could be performed using the wavetoy, but I didn't try it...
In any case the patch doesn't touch the core of the thorn: it just moves a couple of things around... so I don't expect it to cause problems.
Famous last words...
I think the only test case with periodic boundaries that we have is in thorn ML_BSSN_Test, and I don't know whether it currently works because there were some interactions with the way boundary conditions are handled in Kranc.
Let's apply your patch.
