Emacs CC Mode has a "python" style which defines 8-space hard-tab
indentation.  This was the blessed style for Python's C code.  I
distinctly remember Guido agreeing to 4 space indents for Python 1.7
(or new code) but that it wasn't worth going back and changing
existing code at this time.

If Fred's doing a code cleansing then it's probably okay that he also
adjust the indentation.  Most important is consistency within the
file.
