Well, GNU indent is now on version 2.2.9, and has evidently addressed
*some* problems with it.
Unfortunately, the pgindent README does not actually specify what any
of the actual problems with GNU indent are, thus making it pretty much
impossible to evaluate whether or not any of the subsequent releases
might have addressed any of those problems.
I doubt that the pgindent issues have been addressed.
