Hi,
When the tab width is other than 8, auto-indent-mode can
miscompute the indentation column. E.g. when (set-tab-width 4):
aaaa
bbbb
cccc
.

Cursor positioned here following return after cccc
This seems to be due to the value 8 being hard-coded in the the
doindent function in util.c. This patch appears to fix the issue:
