I don't mind fixing coding-style issues in there, but I would prefer
that it be more comprehensive than this - someone sits down and does a
series of large, more complete subystem-wide cleanups then sure, in the
long term it's worth the pain of merging them.

But I don't think it's good to do this as a slow, random ad-hoc
pitter-patter of changes like this one.
