Description
Format all fails if "Spaces Around Binary Operator" option is off !

instanceof operator must not be threated same as other operators. It is possible to remove spaces here:
int a=1;

but not in this case
if (x instance of Object)
Steps to Reproduce:
Goto to (Default) Project Properties. Goto Formatting. Goto tab Spaces.
Uncheck option "Around Binary Operator".

Open any project, open any class and insert following code:

  public void test() {
    Object x=new Object();
    if (x instanceof Object) {
      System.out.println("hello");
    }
  }

Now do right mouse click and select format all. DO you see what happened ?
Did you get syntax error ? Now your code looks like:

  public void test() {
    Object x=new Object();
    if (xinstanceof Object) {
      System.out.println("hello");
    }
  }

Well keyword xinstanceof does not exist. This space should not be removed !
Workarounds
Never use Unchecked option "Around Binary Operator".
