I do understand most of the opinions, but I would rather prefer that we
don't revert the trailing whitespace patch. I definitely can live with
them, and they probably cleaned up a bit the code.
How, for goodness sake, can pure trailing whitespace changes, which by
necessity you can't even _see_ in an editor (except if you activate modes
that explicitely show them e.g. in different color) clean up code? Have
you looked at the patch or fallout from it? If not, why do you speak in
favor of it?
I was speaking in favor of the patch because it apparently make the GCC code
more conformant to GCC coding styles.
Regards.
