Hi!

I just thought of this. What we said was that it should be tabs and that
it doesn't matter what the width is for the tab. But I think that it
does and that everybody should use tabwidth 4, because that makes it
possible to structure the ebuild to look nice.

I've always used tabwidth:8 and structured my ebuilds to look good for
that. But they don't for someone with tabwidth:4.
