Given that that file is a direct lift from binutils, I would rather update it with the latest version from binutils than waste time on reformatting, if it really bothers you.
My opinion is that changing code that works and that doesn't need attention is a waste of time. If you're working on some code (or even if you are just trying to understand it and you want to make it clearer), then fine, reformat/re-indent/fix argument declarations/whatever, but if you're not, find something more productive to do.
