It seems that the new 'indent-tabs-mode' minor-mode, although defined as
global, it's working as a buffer-local minor-mode. Using emacs from
master branch built today:
1. emacs -Q
2. C-h v 'indent-tabs-mode' (value is t)
3. eval '(indent-tabs-mode -1)'
4. C-h v 'indent-tabs-mode' (local value is nil; global value is t)

Where did you see that it's "defined as global"?

On simple.el:
(define-minor-mode indent-tabs-mode
"Toggle whether indentation can insert TAB characters."
:global t :group 'indent :variable indent-tabs-mode)

That's the mode, but in your recipe you are looking at the variable,
not the mode. And the documentation of the variable clearly says:
Automatically becomes buffer-local when set.

That's because it's explicitly made that way (bindings.el:799) despite
the :global declaration (which is about the _variable_ not the mode).

Apologies. But then I don't understand why we'd want this to be a
global minor mode. Lars?

Uhm... I think the :global t may be a mistake here -- I was just
following the suggestion in bug#6276 without thinking much about it.
