This is due to TABs being used for some of them and groups of 4 spaces for others. The original author (Klaus?) probably has set TAB size in his editor to 4, so he didn't see the difference.

Uh oh ... I sense a style war...

For the record, I like tabs (not spaces) with tabstop=4.
You don't *even* want to hear about my curly braces ;-)

My first patch [1] (against current CVS) replaces the TABs with sequences of 4 spaces.

Why not just set your editor to tabstop=4 ?

The second one [2] removes trailing spaces.

However, trailing space *is* evil.

Not to discourage the comments/documentation though! :-)
