Before the patch:

total: 75 errors, 125 warnings, 4230 lines checked

After the patch:

total: 59 errors, 67 warnings, 4274 lines checked

This feels like unnecessary churn to me.  If the patch was taking vl.c
to 0 errors, I'd be more inclined to pay the cost.  But I don't want
there to be 3-4 patches that break blame just to get a single file into
compliance.
