No, I don't think this is necessary. I don't mind jumping in the
middle of an "if (0)" branch, as long as it is indented correcly :)

Just a patch for white space and indentation would be easy, I think.
- have break at the end of case lines, not at the start
- start a newline before else
- ident according to musl's coding style
As long as git diff --color-words shows nothing, this should be fine.
I could such a patch, if you want.
Replacing comma operators by compound statements would be a bit more
work. We could delay that to when somebody touches that file for more
serious reasons.
