For what it's worth, I have scripts that automatically verify white
space patches.  rename_rev.pl will work so long as none of the white
spaces are return chars and you don't change the comments.  Otherwise,
I have different scripts I use.

If changing the spaces at the start of the line makes it go over 80
chars, please don't fix that in the same patch, that should be separate.
