I would tend to assume so, yes, but I haven't verified (which is one
reason I sent-pr instead of trying to figure out how to report it to
the gcc people). Is it incorrect to send-pr for such things? I
thought that was the correct thing to do, with the NetBSD compiler
people doing triage and kicking those for which it's appropriate
upstream.

Well, for one thing, the compiler does this even for non-NetBSD code,
for which KNF is not relevant unless the user wants it to be. For
another, it's not warning "against KNF"; it's warning "misleading
indentation".
If it required -Wmisleading-indentation to get it, I'd object less (I'd
still object, because the indentation is not misleading). But -Wall
enables this warning among others.
