I can try running it. In the future though, it would be better to make
a diff rather than send the whole function. It's easier for ppl who are
re-creating the environment to inject diffs into the original to try it
out.

I believe for ALIGNMENT_JUSTIFY to work, it must be specified in the
pdb by the parser. However, a whole paragraph should maintain the same
type of justification. If one line isn't, then it may be a bug.

By all means, invesitage further :)
