Cool. In that case I'm ready to kick this up to a committer.

Can't help you there I'm afraid. vi takes care of much of the
indentation and such, but my patches have had their fair share of code
and error message style problems too. On the bright side I've found
that switching between code conventions does get easier with practice.Currently my strategy consists largely of "read
thepatch over
several times before submitting it". Even so, mistakes sometimes slip
through.
