Actually I needed to count the style bugs more carefully -- 2 implicit comparisons with 0 or NULL (unless the first one is really boolean), but I only counted 1, while I counted 2 for the extra parentheses. > I'll heed the request of the second-to-last paragraph of style(9) on > this particular change, not churning the SVN repo further, and make a > mental note for later.
