Do we really need a convention about the presence of a space between
the function name and the opening paren? Certainly doesn't affect the
compiler's ability to generate binaries.

Look, I don't honestly care about the formatting rules and regulations
across the board for our code, (so long as readability is of the
highest priority), but there's no reason why we shouldn't expect
contributions to at least maintain the consistency of the files they
are patching. Oh, that's right, we already *do* expect that of the
patches ... unless there's some magical difference between source code
and prose that I'm overlooking. text/plain to me all the same.
