Incremental vs rewrite

[Peter B. West]

The thing that immediately strikes me about Arnd's development is that 
it seems to blow away the theory that incremental modification of an 
existing code base is always the better way to go.  IIUC, Arnd wrote a 
formatter from scratch (except for some fo the font handling) in two years.
