converts tabs to spaces in indent-tabs-mode t

[Yaroslav Halchenko]

I have a codebase (fail2ban) which used tabs for indentation

now when e.g. standing on the front of middle line in

   self.fd, self.name = tempfile.mkstemp('fail2ban', 'monitorfailures')
   self.filter = Filter_(None)
   self.filter.addLogPath(self.name)

I press Enter -- I would get a new empty line and that line would loose its tabs -- they would get replaced with spaces... yikes!

I have

indent-tabs-mode is a variable defined in `C source code'.
Its value is t
Local in buffer filtertestcase.py; global value is t

py-indent-tabs-mode

toggles it.

See also in meny PyTools.

BTW py-indent-tabs-mode-on/off are broken, will be fixed, but don't interfere.

Thanks for the report,

Andreas
