Hello Andrew & Jelmer,

I finally finished chuncking the whole thing.

I push bits of reformatting up and down when possible to ship them with 
patches that were modifying the same stuff (so that the patch appear to 
modify the logic _and_ in the same time put it in quite correct format).

I normaly addressed all "%", ",", "\" (well most of them let say) in the 
different patches + last remarks of jelmer yesterday.

I think now that some intermediate patches can be remerged.


For the moment I didn't rerun make tests, and it's possible that some 
regression have been done because the code has been heavily manipulated.
I'll try to do it soon. In the meanwhile please do remarks.
