To be honest my main mechanism for catching those problems is Tomi
;). There is also a reasonable uncrustify configuration that I don't use
as often as I should, mainly because the baseline in various files is
not there. Perhaps if we did more some global whitespace cleanup this
would be more helpful. To try it out run

% uncrustify -c devel/uncrustify.cfg --replace $files

then

% git diff

to see what changed.

% find -name .git -prune -o -type f -a -regex '.*[.]\(c\|h\|cc\)' -print -exec uncrustify -c devel/uncrustify.cfg --replace {} \;

yields a whopping 1933 insertions and 1903 deletions. Perhaps there are
some places where the uncrustify config needs tuning, but none of the
output looked crazy to me. Two things I noticed causing lots of changes

1) "!foo" -> "! foo"
2) putting a leading * in front of multi-line comments

If we do decide to rip off the bandage, that will cause a certain amount
of rebasing pain for any patch series in flight; now (i.e after the
release) is actually a pretty good time from my point of view, but
others (e.g. you) might feel differently.
