I think it tries to indent your line as far as the next white space in the line above, or something like this. If you set tab width to anything greater than 1, it adds spaces in between, if it can't reach that point with tabs. AFAIC, I've just turned real tabs off, and done with it. Now I have tons of space chars in my code, but who cares?
