There IS mixing of tabs and spaces.  It seems there is a
misunderstanding.

In the following, I will use "--->" to show a tab and "_" to show a
(leading) space.

for(;;) {
--->if (a == b) {
--->--->some_long_function_name(a,
--->--->________________________b);
--->}
}

For a function name that's longer by 1 character, you'd get this:

for(;;) {
--->if (a == b) {
--->--->some_long_function_name1(a,
--->--->_________________________b);
--->}
}

With this arrangement of tabs (for indentation) and spaces (for
alignment), you can change the display tab width and get the right
effect.

I apologize for inadvertently using a multiple of 8 chars in the name
"some_long_function_name".

Oh, wait!  The name is 23 chars long.  Hm.
