 Yeah, took me a minute to track down too since it was rolled up with the
 PSR-2 changes. Mixing code format changes with actual functional
 changes... *sigh*

 @nacin, how about pushing to a subfolder, and still just sticking with the
 following files: LICENSE (since it is LGPL, not GPLv2 - probably should be
 included), class.phpmailer.php, class.smtp.php, and PHPMailerAutoload.php
 ? This would avoid any file changes from upstream, and even though we also
 strip extras, languages, POP3, and all other package files, it still
 benefits from being moved. I know the autoloader implementation is not
 ideal, but the only reason it's actually harmful is because we were
 already renaming files to begin with. This is WP's fault, not PHPMailer.
 It might be time to just fess up and fix it.
