Have now done

(setq electric-indent-mode nil)

I realise now that electric indendation should be enabled carefully.  Found 
that it was electric-indent-mode that when you use it in a buffer, not only the 
new line is indented, but also the previous one, which means that its 
indentation was being forcefully changed if the current indentation is not the 
only possible one.

That was my big argument about how any modification was breaking the 
indentation of legacy code.
