Please violate the 80 chars rule where reasonable.

"
Statements longer than 80 columns should be broken into sensible chunks,
unless exceeding 80 columns significantly increases readability and does
not hide information.
"


Likely some of that code here should be refactored into readable
sub-functions.

codingstyle also mentions

"The answer to that is that if you need more than 3 levels of
indentation, you're screwed anyway, and should fix your program."
