It's actually pretty hard to indent like this in vi, although I have
to admit that I do it anyway. In emacs, the easiest way to get close
to the style you're talking about is to rewrite the statement
slightly:
> dirbuf.d_fileno = (cntobn(pmp,
> pmp->pm_rootdirblk)
> * dirsperblk);
Then standard electric C mode will indent correctly.
