No, indent is not broken e.g.
indent -ut -ts 2 -st t.c > t.c.out
works fine. You do need to set the indent step (e.g. -i 2) equal to or a
multiple of the tab size if you wish to sensibly use tabs. Using the
manual can work wonders :-)
IMHO tabs are a bad thing in code.
I would suggest, if you want to report problems you;
1) state the version of indent you are using.
2) State on which platform you are running.
3) Exactly which command options you used.
I don't see any tabs in your example, btw????
