I think that this is all good but it can be done as a single patch after 
Basile's work has been committed.  We usually try hard to get 
indentation right, but given the history of gengtype it would make sense 
to give him an exception on this.

Note that unlike "indent", Emacs's indent-region usually does the right 
thing as it doesn't try to fix brace styles, spacing around operators 
and parentheses, and long lines (only indentation).  However, even then 
it would complicate a lot Basile's work.
