I ran indent on whole codebase. It failed on ./lib/LzmaDec.c and
./script/lua/lvm.c and issued warnings on  ./script/lua/ldump.c and
./script/lua/lundump.c
It made following changes.
1) Cut long lines. Not always in a sensible place
2) Added a space before parenthesis in __attribute__ ((...))
3) Put newlines after ^L, not around
4) Removed space after !
5) Fixed spaces
6) Added spaces before comment if comment shares a line with code
7) Merged short lines in arguments
8) Removed spaces before labels
9) Added a space after &
10) in initializations like
a = {
..
};
it has put { on new line and without spacing
Perhaps something more. The patch would be 77280 lines. If someone there
would be a way to check indent doen't introduce bugs we could run it
sometimes on all .c files.
