Aha, emacs 22.2.1 works as I expect with -Q. However, when I rename all
.emacs files I can find to .emacs.OLD, start emacs without options, open
a file with a .c extension, and M-x c-set-style RET linux RET, tabs are
displayed as three spaces (I've counted wrongly yesterday).

For now, I could work with -Q, but I'd like to solve this problem; how
could I further analyze it?

With kind regards,
