I am not sure what the right approach is here. I am very hesitant to make any
non-style-related changes to already working code, yet I can not really test
the changes unless I first make them downstream, then copy upstream, because
the port migration is obviously incomplete and I can't test the changes
upstream. And that would take double or more amount of time.

I realize that I might have been overly optimistic when I signed up to do this
:) but I think we should figure out some sort of an approach that allows us to
do this more efficiently.

In my idealistic view, I imagined that we would break this up into phases:

a) get the port upstream, fixing minor 
b) make it build
c) continue improving testable, working code

Attempting to refactor in-flight just doesn't seem like a very prudent thing to
do. Though I am pretty sure our port doesn't represent "perfect code', it is a
working port.
