Can't you tell from my evil grin that I'm serious?

I do think that it's important that the suggestion that
Emacs would not indent GNU code correctly has been withdrawn.

It isn't all that black and white.  We've been using fixcc with
emacs on and off and the only ones running it were Han-Wen and
I and we both have emacs installed -- and not astyle probably.

If you look at debian's popularity contest, you'll find that
emacsen have an installed base of about 22%, while astyle
has an installed base of 0.84%.

On the one hand, it is silly in a monty-pythonesque way to
depend on and run Emacs to indent code where astyle would do.
On the other hand, it is equally silly to suggest that astyle
would be required to indent GNU code after editing with Emacs.
