It's strange to see this thread go on about messing with the Perl script
because we're too afraid of pg_bsd_indent. Maybe we should take
ownership of that code -- improve its own indentation to our
conventions, add comments, rename unclear variables, and so on until we
have something we can work with, and fix these weird bugs and
idiosincratic behaviors we don't like. I just found out this code dates
back from 1976.
We have a _huge_ regression test for it: our own source code repository.
It's not like any breakage is going to go unnoticed.
