My practice with src/timezone is to pgindent the upstream code and then
diff it; given that extra step, it's not really any more complex (and
maybe less so, as this hides minor whitespace changes for instance).
There are some other deltas to worry about as well, see
src/timezone/README.

I have no particular opinion on whether pgindent should be part of the
mix for imath, but I do strongly recommend setting up and documenting a
reproducible import process, as I did for src/timezone.
