OK. That wasn't obvious from your Changelog, since you mention
"spc+tab" which generally sounds like "all combinations of spaces and
tabs" being replaced with tab.

OK, I cvs updated one file, and saved the old version first
(gnus-dired.el, a file I wrote not too long ago) to see the diffs.
What is the motivation for this change?
When I wrote gnus-dired.el, the last thing I did before submitting it
for inclusion was M-x mark-whole-buffer and M-x indent-region, and
I've never customized any of the indention variables in
emacs-lisp-mode either. So, gnus-dired.el was originally indented
using emacs's default indentation in emacs-lisp-mode. Is there any
way I could have coded it differently to avoid requiring your
whitespace modification? If not, then I think you're going to have to
repeat the changes you made again and again as new code is submitted
using emacs-lisp-mode's default indentation rules.
