That depends on the individual who write the code, but I recall that
this is some old-school style from the 70's and/or the 80's when

Dammit, thanks.  These successive rebases are a bit annoying..  The
data produced is consistent, and the new contents can be grepped, so I
think that I am just going to apply both patches and move on to other
topics.
