Yep, that makes sense. Looks like I introduced the problem (most of my
perl used to be written in a style that forbids tabs, so it may have
snuck in that way, but the rest of the file definitely follows Git's
usual style of tabs).

There are a few lines just above that have 8+ spaces. Arguably those
could be tabs, too, depending on your view of tabs. We usually do "8
spaces is a tab" in the Git project, but the oft-repeated "tabs to
indent, spaces to align" mantra would apply here (and I suspect you're
using a different tabwidth since you noticed this one case). So I'd just
as soon leave them be, and take your patch as-is.
