 But `indent-tabs-mode''s C pendant from indent.c:
 
   DEFVAR_BOOL ("indent-tabs-mode", &indent_tabs_mode /*
 *Indentation can insert tabs if this is non-nil.
 Setting this variable automatically makes it local to the current buffer.
 */ );
   indent_tabs_mode = 1;
 
 appears unruffled during the execution of `indent-to'.  I read through
 the huge fuckup of code off specpdl and gave up at some point. 
Maybe it has somewthing to with the fact that indent-tabs-mode is
buffer local?
