Thanks, it is just fine you mention these kind of issues as well as I any way would not know as you mention your selves. I can see the lines having only one indentation after a line break and not two and it is actual an indentation error that is also present in the stable-1.5 branch and it has not been corrected with the patch. 

Thanks,

Knud

The second hunk covers lines 467 to 524 in the patched file.

There's no patching errors or anything like that, it's just that the inserted lines have only four spaces instead of eight, so the indentation appears wrong when compared to the surrounding code.

I didn't examine the patches with a fine-toothed comb (though I did spend a bit of time looking through them, of course), so I don't know if there are other instances of this or if this was the only one, but I happened to notice this case so I thought I'd mention it.  Obviously it doesn't affect the actual operation of the patch, it's just a code style issue.
