Are you saying the ident lines in question are in the upstream source, not
Sun added?   If so, then leaving them in permanently and having the ON CRT
waive their removal is the only sane choice.   Upstream code should always
be exempt from style and formatting rules such as ident removal and cstyle,
since otherwise every update is an exercise in pointless time wasting.
