Thanks for that heads-up about new versions of uncrustify.  I tried
uncrustify-0.55 (released ~10 days ago at
http://sourceforge.net/projects/uncrustify/files/).  It has many new
parameters and better documentation of the old ones.  One of the new
parameters has a default which ends up changing _many_ of our files. I
didn't like that style change so I changed that parameter from the default
"add" to "ignore", and the number of files that were changed was reduced to
a much more reasonable number (10 or so), and those changes (as seen by
"scripts/style_source.sh --diff -au |less") and committed as
revision 10744 looked like improvements to me.

Since the results from uncrustify seem to be so version dependent, I have
now changed the requirement to exactly version 0.55 for obvious reasons.
This requirement should not be too onerous for our developers since
uncrustify-0.55 is such an easy download and build.
