Edge case in c-cleanup

Edge case in c-cleanup

[Miguel Guedes]

I have got the following clean ups defined in a c style (c-add-style):

(c-cleanup-list . (brace-else-brace
                   brace-elseif-brace
                   brace-catch-brace
                   empty-defun-braces
                   one-liner-defun
                   defun-close-semi
                   space-before-funcall
                   compact-empty-funcall))

I have noticed a minor annoying edge case that can be best illustrated
as given by:

int bazillion()
{
  if(booz) {
    foo();
  }         // typing closing brace, issues newline
  else      // no opening brace means `else´ isn't placed above
    bar();
}

Since in my current setup typing `}' automatically issues a newline,
emacs won't correctly place an else statement next to the closing brace
above (as desired) *if it does not* contain an opening brace. For
instance, this would work just fine:

int bazillion()
{
  if(booz) {
    foo();
  } else {    // else is moved up next to the closing brace
    bar();    // after typing the subsequent opening brace
  }
}

Is there are way of resolving this via a style setting perhaps such that
`else´ statements without opening braces are correctly placed?

Unsure if I made my question clear enough so please ask for
clarification if in doubt.
