Right.  In all other cases, { is on the line of the statement that it
relates to (if/while/else).  } is on its own line, except in the case of
else.  No space between if/while and the opening bracket.  Gotos are used
for error handling, and in some rare cases for error recovery (see the
overflow case in check_xroutes for an example).

They should be spaces; if there are tabs, then I didn't untabify when
applying a patch.  I'm not too religious about spaces vs. tabs.
