I fiddled with Intent on a pure BSD4.3/MicroVAX II, and compiled a single
C file with the options:

% gcc -O -S test.c
% mv test.s test_noindent.s
% indent test.c
% gcc -O -S test.c
% mv test.s test_indent.s

I won't show diffs, but there was less than 10 lines difference in the two
files. The test.c file was the source to a mutant version of ctar.

Of course, you may get different results.
