some of these changes fit in 80 cols.  It'd be nice to see the 3-liner
printfs reduced to 2-liners.

btw, in case you wanted someone to actually test, or check consistency
even, they can't because git-am bails with a "fatal: corrupt patch at
line 14".  Meanwhile, checkpatch.pl suggests you have bad mailer
settings:

Your patch has style problems, please review.  If any of these errors
are false positives report them to the maintainer, see
