Ah, yes, that what I meant. I was hoping to get the whole set in -rc1, since
some of the patches are purely coding style fixes.

But then it'd be total of 9 lines consisting of three 3-line ifs. I decided
that it would be more readable with a single if even though it is not compliant
with coding style. What do you think? I can just resend it.

Thanks.
