... isn't the space thing a workaround for a "diff -p" bug?
Labels should either not have any indent or be indented by tabs (since some code could presumably benefit from indenting labels). Mass replacing any labels run through Lindent with space prefixes would seem like a bad idea :/
(From original reply) It has a habit of leaving/creating "^\t+ +" too, and that "\t\t/* comment */$" oddity, I couldn't see any options in the man page to fix those...
