My emacsen have this set to 8. Both GNU/Linux and W32 no matter if
release or cvs.
Since the beginning of the world tab-width's value has been 8 :-).
And i guess it will stay this way even if some editors/IDEs have a
value of 4.
C-h v tab-width
You can customize this variable.

Thanks. But it seems no matter my tab-width is 4 or 8 or any other
value, the problem remains the same: tab's display width does not
exactly match it's equal-spaces' display width. Since emacs 21.3.1
and latest CVS version are both on my computer, and they make
different tab-width displays, I do think there's something to be fix.
