Subject: Text-Mode M-Q bug?

	Howdy folks.  I've got this problem with text-mode that I
never really have had before.  I'm using XEmacs 20.2-b2 under Linux
2.0.29, and when I've got a nicely formatted paragraph with the first
line indented with a tab, and I hit M-Q to do the auto-fill thing, it
replaces the tab with a space.  This didn't happen in 20.1-b6 (the
last version I used before getting enough free hard disk space).

For example, if I take that last paragraph, and M-Q it, I get this:

last version I used before getting enough free hard disk space).

When what I really want is to have it started with a tab instead of a
space.  What happened?  Is it supposed to do this?
