"git blame" says that modeline was put there by me, sometime in the deep past.
The relevant log message said:

Change to four-space indentation in order to avoid bad line breaks,
though using tabs (for speed of interpretation) rather than spaces.

Since this is a thoroughly obsolete consideration, go ahead and replace
tabs with spaces both here and in all other scripts that have tabs
(except the ones containing Makefile fragments, of course).

Zoltan.
