Could you include in this description a snippet of the observed changes?

Also, it would be nice to see the patch split into two: one that changes
the logic, and one that adjusts the whitespace for the changed logic.
(Once the patch is in git, one can of course use 'git log -p -w' to see
just the changed logic among all the changed whitespace, but from just
a plain email this is a bit hard to do.  Or maybe you yourself could post
a -p -w diff as a follow-up to the full patch to show the essential changes.
Because it seems that also github is not able to strip whitespace changes
from diffs.)
