Tabs are a problem anyway, because the compiler cannot know how wide
the tab is in the Emacs buffer.  So if move-to-column is used to get
to the place where the error is indicated, tabs should be a problem
that is already handled specially, I think.  And if so, it could be
handled specially (in a different way) when forward-char is used
instead.

Or what am I missing?
