Comment (by simonpj):

 I'm sorry, I'm quite confused.  GHC already has a `-fwarn-tabs` flag,
 doesn't it?  There are two patches offered above, but I'm not clear what
 the purpose of either is. Maybe I have not ready through this ticket
 carefully enough.

 Would someone just like to write down what the issue is, what the
 alternatives are, their pros and cons, and which of the alternatives they
 recommend following.

 I have no opinion myself; I'd just like see this resolved.

 Simon
