Actually, that should've been added several commits earlier ;-)

Umm...  Matter of taste, but since you work in that area more often than
I do...  Note, BTW, that tty_tiocgicount() just a bit above that place also
doesn't follow that style.  Anyway, I don't care either way - if you want
an empty line in that, no problem.

Nice catch.  Fixed.

*blink*
Right you are... that's a bisect hazard (in the end of the series returns
become unconditional anyway).  Fixed.
