I don't see any point in this - lots of code exists both ways, that's
really just fluff. The difference isn't even interesting enough to be
worth fixing up.

That's just wrong.

In any case, your patch won't apply anyway since we've since
changed/removed code that you're modifying.

There's very little in this patch that I'd be willing to apply, and most
of that you actually got the coding style wrong so it's not an
improvement at all.
