To consistently hack a tab-indented project, I thought to “(standard-indent . 
tab-width)” as dir-local variable.  Yet it doesn’t seem to eval variables, 
contrarily to file-local ones.  Also is there a more canonical way of making 
indentation purely by tabs?  Thank you ^^

I just noticed I should use `c-basic-offset' instead: what’s the use of a 
separate variable for that, that complexify a such understandable and likely 
user feature? if none, couldn’t it be replaced with `standard-indent'?
