I'm wondering if it would be OK if we removed the change history and 
tried to align the indentation a little. (This may need to be multiple 
patches depending on how everyone else feels)

It may help if we converted the comments into one block. eg:

   /* ... */
   /* ... */

to

  /*
   * ...
   * ...
   */

thank you again for the patch
