Dear all:

While trying to upgrade my current 3.1.0 installation of Ganglia with
the 3.1.1.1901 + spoofing RPMs I just built, I noticed that gmond.conf
was created as gmond.conf.rpmnew.

This doesn't surprise me much, as I know that there were minor
configuration changes between 3.1.0 and 3.1.x branch.

However, when I ran diff, the result was that the *entire* file was
completely different.

I double checked this and found out it is the same between 3.1.1 and
3.1.1.1901 (i.e. the entire 3.1.1 gmond.conf file was different from
3.1.1.1901 gmond.conf file).

Turns out, it was because of this recent backport in 3.1.x branch:

http://ganglia.svn.sourceforge.net/viewvc/ganglia?view=rev&revision=1882

Is this really necessary?  While in general I am in favour of
whitespace cleanup, in this case I think since it impacts usability, I
think we should punt this until later.

Cheers,

Bernard
