Not quite right, actually. I had to do 'git checkout remotes/origin/cleanup'
rather than 'git checkout cleanups'. But I have the patch sequence now.
Most of them look useful and unproblematic. 0009 is slightly wrong - unsigned
int constants want a 'u' suffix rather than the 'U' for longs.
I'm reviewing, and will probably apply most of these.
