A quick read-through showed that a lot of the changes here are really white 
noise (turning comments that start with /** into /* and such), so I'm a bit 
nervous about applying this, but I've applied it anyway on the theory that it 
was posted to the list quite some time ago and if somebody objected I missed 
it.  (And presumably I can revert it if somebody tells me that was a bad 
call.)  And I want to catch up with the patch backlog...

Speaking of which, I need to edit the Authors file to add a maintainer for 
zcip.  I'm guessing David Brownell would be that guy?
