Public bug reported:

Binary package hint: mrxvt

Found in mrxvt 0.5.3-1, on ubuntu 8.04 amd64.

Tab stops (normally every 8 chars, but can be changed with the 'ESC H'
and 'ESC [ g' escape sequences) are shared between all tabs within a
mrxvt window, rather than each tab having their own set up defined
tabstops.

To reproduce, open a new mrxvt window and type at the shell prompt:
  echo -e ".\t.\t.\t.\t.\t.\t.\t."
  (This should show a row of evenly-spaced dots.)
  echo -e "     ^[H     ^[H     ^[H     ^[H"
  (This adds some extra tab stops.)
  echo -e ".\t.\t.\t.\t.\t.\t.\t."
  (Tab stops are now no longer every 8 chars)

Now create a new Tab (eg. press shift-control-t).
  echo -e ".\t.\t.\t.\t.\t.\t.\t."
  (The extra tab stops created in the first window show up in the second window)
