New files don't even seem to consistently use the changed setting after I
have closed POV-Ray and opened it again. Old files openened before with 3.5
but not before with 3.6 also have the default 8 spaces instead of 3 spaces
as I have always used.

That's a pity. I really think I got it to work that way in POV-Ray 3.5 under
Windows 98, because I don't remember having had to change the tab settings
for years.
