Hi Wolfgang,

Huh.. my bad, I actually had my tabs set to 4 on the screen.

Can you at least consider allowing me to use spaces to indent that header file? 
Placing the entire u-boot environment variables in one string without any 
indentation of sorts would make that code highly un-readable. And with indents 
or 8, impossible to fit. But the moment I use space tabs, the tool also 
complains "please don't use spaces".... I feel sort-of out of options here 
other than going for a flat un-readable environment variables.

If not, I'll just remove the text indents tabs added for readability and 
resubmit the patch. 

Cheers,
Gilles
