In my e-mail client i found that wrap long line settings was set to
default value true. I have disabled the same and will re-send the patch.

If you'd send them as [PATCH] I might even apply your patches ;)

I'd prefer a blank line before the if

This patch was sent in a way that I could apply it. :-)
