Turn off all transformations in your outgoing emails such as text formatting and such. In fact, email the patch to yourself, and make sure you can successfully apply the result. Also, you have formatted the comment improperly. Don't format comments: /* Like this. */ but rather, format them: /* Like * this. */ You also didn't style the variable declaration and assignment properly, there must be a space around the "=" sign, like this: unsigned int loops = 0; Thanks.
