Ok, things are even worse: comments I've made to intermediate patches
have wrong URLs in the summary e-mail, so they don't point to the right
line numbers. Certainly a bug in Rietveld, but I'm not willing to do it,
sorry.

Bottom line is that you're making too many gratuitous changes, including
style changes, and probably useless changes (Py_LOCAL_INLINE everywhere,
nitpicking over ISLT / IFLT...). Also, there's some strange complication
in some places which deserves comments and justification.

Next time, please upload a single patch. Really.
