Nik, leave it (as -b will not show the white space change); or back it
out?

My intention was to create a diff to submit to doc@freebsd.org.
Traditionally, we've used <tab>s in all files.  So using them here would
match our tradition.  I actually prefer <tab>s as that is easiest with
`vi', and some `vi' clones can actually convert spaces to <tab>s if they
are in the proper mode to do so (which one could be in for our code).

Ether way, a consistent spacing would be much appreciated.
