This patch suffered a lot of bitrot in the last month, mostly due to the
noop patch for SSI.  It also used the term SERIALIZABLE in many places to
indicate any transaction-snapshot mode transaction, so I applied changes
consistent with the noop patch.  I also found a few whitespace and brace
usage issues which seemed to conflict with conventional usage and cleaned
those up.  A minor spelling typo also corrected.

A new patch reflecting all this is attached.

This now compiles and passes regression tests.  I still need to re-run all
the other tests which Florian and I previously used to test the patch.  I
don't have any reason to expect that they will now fail, but one need to be
thorough.  Once that is confirmed, I think this will be ready for committer
unless someone can think of something else to throw at it first.
