Again, this rule only applies for structure declarations.  At
least, this is in agreement with the original admin/style/style
document:

[...]
/*
 * When declaring variables in structures, declare them sorted by use, then
 * by size, and then by alphabetical order.  The first category normally
 * doesn't apply, but there are exceptions.  Each one gets its own line.
 * Put a tab after the first word, i.e. use "int^Ix;" and "struct^Ifoo *x;".
 *
 * Major structures should be declared at the top of the file in which they
 * are used, or in separate header files, if they are used in multiple
 * source files.  Use of the structures should be by separate declarations
 * and should be "extern" if they are declared in a header file.
 */
struct foo {
	struct	foo *next;	/* List of active foo */
	struct	mumble amumble;	/* Comment for mumble */
	int	bar;
};
struct foo *foohead;		/* Head of global foo list */
[...]

Note how ``foohead'' is declared -- no tab after ``struct''.
