Having been through the problem if weird formatting, what worked for us is what is recommended here: Check everything out, reformat it, recompile, and verify a bit exact optimized stripped executable; if it's not bit-exact, the formatter did more than reformat. I've seen reformatters change tabs to spaces INSIDE string literals - we didn't use that one, of course :-) --Bryan
