That's good. However, I'm unable to reproduce it on the installed emacs 
in fencepost.

GNU Emacs 22.1.1 (x86_64-pc-linux-gnu) of 2008-01-22 on osmium, modified 
by Ubuntu

So, I figured I'd build a version from sources, and I seem to be having 
trouble building it

% make
Your tree does not include the compiled Lisp files.
You need to do `make bootstrap' to build Emacs.
make: *** [maybe_bootstrap] Error 1
% make bootstrap
(cd src;      make  mostlyclean)
make[1]: Entering directory `/srv/data/home/r/rv/homes/fsf/emacs-build/src'
make[1]: *** No rule to make target `mostlyclean'.  Stop.
make[1]: Leaving directory `/srv/data/home/r/rv/homes/fsf/emacs-build/src'
make: *** [bootstrap-clean-before-fast] Error 2

So, can you help me and do a couple of things...

1. I could not know from your mail if your example had been munged or 
not by the mail client. Can you send me the example with spaces and tabs 
marked <s> and <t>, i.e., query-replace ' ' with <s> and tab with <t>

2. If you have access to fencepost, can you please repeat this test on 
emacs 22 installed there?

Thanks
