Personally I would like to remove the tabs so that grepping is easier and more obvious. But the tabbing is there since the #ifdef'ing goes three levels deep.

At the suggestion of someone I double-checked the C standard and it does not require the # sign be in column 1 (turns out some old compilers do, but ISO C does not). So I am for keeping the tabbing then, but I would like to move the # sign next to the macro statement instead of being in column 1. Does that work for people?

Since we are requiring C89 compliance I figure this will won't be a big deal, but we all know some people still use funky compilers on Python.
