The proposed changes certainly match the style we use in C better, which
is what some of the other settings were also informed by.  So I'm in
favor of the changes -- for braces.

For parentheses, I'm not sure whether this is a good idea:

diff --git a/src/backend/utils/mb/Unicode/UCS_to_EUC_CN.pl

+        )
+      );

     next if ($code >= 0xA2A1 && $code <= 0xA2B0);
     next if ($code >= 0xA2E3 && $code <= 0xA2E4);

In a manual C-style indentation, this would just be

next if (!($code >= 0xA100 && $code <= 0xA9FF
           || $code >= 0xB000 && $code <= 0xF7FF));

but somehow the indent runs have managed to spread this compact
expression over the entire screen.

Can we have separate settings for braces and parentheses?
