Text.PrettyPrint mixes tabs and spaces??

>From Text.PrettyPrint.HughesPJ:

indent n | n >= 8 = '\t' : indent (n - 8)
         | otherwise      = spaces n

I consider it seriously evil to mix tabs and spaces for indentation.
*Seriously* evil. Kill-on-sight evil.

Not to mention that LaTeX's \verbatiminput does not handle tabs, which
makes the result look like, well, crap.

If there are people who want to mix tabs and spaces, fine, but at least
give me a flag that turns it off. Please?
