Comment:
In the spirit of BugSweep, this bug should probably be closed easily. The
two options proposed are:
1. Do nothing. This suits SPJ's style.
1. Change by removing parentheses. This agrees with Hugs and NM.
I think it would be nice to do 2, but I don't feel that strongly about it.
There do not seem to be many interested parties in this issue, and it is
quite minor. Perhaps the default action should be to do nothing
