Another patch attached, with the only difference being the brackets not on a new line.

I considered this. I have only ever used the multithreaded version, but the one advantage of the single-threaded mode is that it is deterministic as I understand, where the multi-threaded version is not. From the webpage:

Ubuntu has separate fasttree and fasttreeMP for reference.

Thanks for the comments and encouragement.
