Hi Vincent,

Did you get around to do anything about this? Even if you didn't complete
it, maybe we can commit part of the job.

I think it is reasonable. There is also a link to subversion.tigris.org,
the old-old mailinglist. The message can probably be found in
lists.apache.org but it might take a bit of time to investigate exactly
what message was linked originally.

This is probably also a good idea. 80-column overflows can be reported (and
potentially ignored if you don't want to get into it).
