Which wouldn't be so weird: in the libstdc++-v3 code we do it all the time.
Yea. I actually reviewed the libstdc++ guidelines to see where they differed from GNU's C guidelines.

I'm strongly in favor of dropping the horizontal whitespace between the method name and its open paren when the result is then dereferenced. ie
foo.last()->e rather than foo.last ()->e.

However, do we want an exception when the result isn't immediately dereferenced? ie, foo.last () or foo.last()?
