Yes, it was indeed a tabs artifact.  I found two lines which were
using spaces instead of tabs.  I fixed those lines to match the
whitespace convention used in the rest of the comment and now things
look better.

I've just committed the patch below:

2006-02-28  Kevin Buettner  <kevinb@redhat.com>

	* mn10300-tdep.c (mn10300_analyze_prologue):  Implement backtrack
	out of pattern match by saving relevant state.  Fix stack size
	adjustment bug.
