^^^^^^^^^^ spaces that are not present in the tree

I even tried the files taken from Maildir/, so its not mailer related.

Besides that it *still* uses spaced for indentation. I didn't
mean you should run it through your own checkpatch.pl version that
doesn't complain about whitespace but through the one contained in
the kernel tree.

Just when I was done I noticed I still had to run checkpatch (the
original version), I did it for one or two patches (involved
an awkward git rebase) then got so upset that I decided to send
the cp update instead.

Well, I've asked for checkpatch-clean patches multiple times
now (at least the things that don't have good justification for
breaking, this does probably never apply to whitespace). If that
is too much to ask then I'm simply going to silently drop your
patches in the future.

Besides, I did not even touch that "Return true if possible" line.

hmkay? What you are seeing is that the offending line uses 8(+4) spaces instead of a tab.

I'm aware of that, so please fix your setup not to break
whitespace.

If it does not apply, well, that is _so_ sad. I always announce the upstream commit id or tree so people have a clue what it's against, and there's even my git tree out there (//dev.computergmbh.de/linux master) where, should even that fail, people can fetch and use gitk/git-forest to see where my commits got stacked on.

You expect me to fetch your tree to figure out why your patches
don't apply? How about testing yourself before wasting other
peoples time?
