Unfortunately, that contradicts our own coding standards.

All of that code is formatted incorrectly, but reformatting existing
code breaks various things, such as vc-annotate.  What I think is wrong
is to introduce new instances of the incorrect formatting (such as
here), since our coding standards say:

  For struct and enum types, likewise put the braces in column one,
  unless the whole contents fits on one line:

    struct foo
    {
      int a, b;
    }

  or

    struct foo { int a, b; }
