Yeah, the default emacs mode seems to be to Do The Wrong Thing.  I have 
this in my .emacs, YMMV.

(setq-default indent-tabs-mode nil)     ; Don't insert tab characters.
(setq-default tab-width 4)              ; If there are tabs, display
                                         ; as 4 spaces.

You can set the tab-width to something much larger to make existing tabs 
obvious.
