because we haven't yet eliminated them all? The coding standard describes
how we would like new code to look like and we appreciate any effort to
convert existing code to this standard.

it would be very nice if indent would create satisfactory results, but
it seems it doesn't. Sometimes 'indent --gnu' is a good start but the 
code needs a lot of finetuning by hand afterwards.

use the standard emacs settings and add the following line to your 
.emacs to suppress insertion of tabs:

  (setq c-mode-common-hook '(lambda () (setq indent-tabs-mode nil)))

looks good to me, go ahead.
