GCC 6: -Wmisleading-indentation vs. “goto fail;”

Both Rust and Golang have optional parens and mandatory braces, so for the same number of keystrokes one would have something more like:

    if ptr { call_oldschool_thingy(ptr) }

(Keystroke count isn't an important metric for me, but apparently very important to some people.)

I love this style. Braceless style always breaks when refactoring or adding/removing debug logging – so it makes sense to make the braces mandatory. And then, because you have a delimiting if and the starting brace, you don't need to have the parenthesis. Great!

Now if only Rust supported the elision of ; ... (Yeah, I know that they have a reason to not do that, but I don't buy it.)
