Yeah we've never really enforced any kind of style rules before, and
it's not just this patch set that's the cause of starting to enforce
them now.  anaconda has been a mishmash of everyone's style for a long
time and it really shows.  For now I'm interested in people just going
along with whatever's already in the files you're editing.  Eventually,
we really do need to suck it up and convert everything to one consistent
style that no one will like.

Of course, it's hard to know what to talk about when we can't see things
in progress.

The glib stuff is new and we haven't really made a big push to get
everything using it, but David did have some patches a little while back
to start converting loader.  We're probably not like to wholesale
convert loader, but making sure new code uses glib where appropriate is
good.  We're linking with this stuff already.  We might as well use it.
