That would be my fault.  Thomas has already fixed it - thanks!

However, Im a little confused by the error you saw.  It certainly tested OK
for me on both Linux and Windows, both when I checked it in, and as soon as
I saw your message (but before updaing CVS).  It also looks like it should
have worked - a tab was used where 8 spaces should have been.

I do find it a little ironic that Pythonwin has a number of features to
detect this exact problem - but I didnt use Pythonwin to edit that :-(

Oh well, all's well that ends well :-)

Mark.
