There were not that many participants. I tried to put up a fight

further consideration, I don't think I really care that much one
way or another, and I do recognize that a whole class of spacing
issues we currently have in Portfiles would not occur if we did
not use tabs. So, let's take 'em out!
The old rule was that Porfiles should be internally consistent.
That was it - and I don't think it's so bad to let portfile
authors handle things however they want as long as the result
isn't totally unreadable for everything else.
So, my vote would be for continuing the old policy and not getting
all whitespace-crazy on everything (it makes sense to have one
whitespace convention for base/ code, though).
I concur.
I agree with Paul. The less we dictate the better, except where it's
critical.
