Uhm, I did not actually go to that effort and just used --sloppy.

3.1.  I am afraid that I may have updated my system since the review,
and that looks like more of a version update than what I did the review
with.  Yes, this is more along the line of --extra-sloppy .  This is
sort of embarrassing, but I haven't even considered the implications of
just using what is there when a particular version has been declared
"standard" and people may actually use it in order _not_ to cause
spurious reformatting.

So where should we go from here?
