yes, my point exactly :-)
It is not too late to do the 'Right Thing'(tm) including in master.

yes, but the mix of various changes leading to such a big patch and
especially the removal of entry peppered in the middle of a massive
re-formating makes that, even with some diff + sed magic, I cannot
reduce that to something readable, so I cannot review it.

In order for _me_ to sign-off for 3.5 branch, I would need you to
break your patch along the lines discussed earlier...
But hey, maybe someone else will review and sign-off as is...
