Uh, thanks, but bulk KNF diffs are really best done by the person
committing them.  I mean, we love diffs, but if it's a bulk change, then
it's better to provide someone with the script used to make the change
instead of the raw diff, so that we don't have to verify that the diff is
just what it claims to be and can instead verify the process/algorithm.
 Now, if we've done a KNF pass and missed something, please let us know, or
perhaps ping the person who did the KNF pass to see if it was intentional.

(This is actually true of the entire OpenBSD tree: style is important, but
style < content.)

For this particular diff, I see a mix of stuff I agree with (spaces around
assignment operators) and stuff I don't agree with and think are "out of
style", like the blank line removals and the unindentation of code in
braces after a 'case'.  No way am I throwing that all in at once.
