Whitespace cleanups

I'm looking at working on a new area of wine (for me) and the file I'm 
going to be working
with is rife with whitespace issues.  Literal tabs are sprinkled around 
and the 80-col limit
has been broken badly and often in easily fixable ways.  I'm wondering 
what the acceptable
approach is to these issues.

I'd like to fix these issues before I start submitting functional 
patches.  My question is this:
Is it acceptable to fix the whole file in one patch (80-cols), or should 
I just fix the
one function I'm planning on touching?   Or should I grit my teeth and 
ignore the style issues
entirely?

Thanks,

~Nate
