I find this output somewhat klunky for machine parsing (and it is
inconsistent with the style used for "sizeof-long", which hints that
these are "<token> <colon> <value>" lines where whitespaces are
avoided in a <token>), but hopefully this is primarily for human
consumption and scrypts that are trying to find a specific piece of
information would know how to use 'grep', so the inconsistency does
not make much of a difference in practice anyway.

Queued.  Thanks.
