Thanks Ryan!  The patch looks good.  I've applied it, except for some
fixup-only changes that went against the coding guideline.

In the future, if you change indenting or brackets, etc, please put
them in their own patch, so it is easier to know what is an actual
change vs. cleanup.

Also, I don't have any SMS messages that use the 7bit GSM alphabet, so
I can't fully test it.  Anyone else able to test?

Thanks.  New server... I'll report it. :-)  I don't think I have access
to it just yet, but hopefully soon.
