I won't address the content yet, just the cosmetic changes that make up 
the bulk of this patch. I think you've done a good thing by running 
Lindent (or whatever) on all the files you've touched, but it has the 
effect of obscuring the meat of your work. No need to re-do it this 
time, but IMHO, purely cosmetic changes should be separate patches and 
labeled as such.

Of course, that's just MHO, and others may feel differently. Thoughts?

regards,
Ben
