Strongly disagree.  Some of the code in GDB is a real mess, and
I am devoted to the goal that it will look better (as time 
becomes available.

Clean-up patches should be made separately from bug-fix
patches, but they should NOT be avoided.  CVS allows you
to separate them, Eli.  Avoiding doing clean-up because it
makes using diff more difficult would be a bad bad thing, 
IMO.
