Vim - tabs and make

Everyone agrees. Tabs are evil. Keep them out of your source code. Making this so is its own topic. More someday on this.

But "make" demands tabs. A stupid decision, but we are stuck with it. It is possible to configure Vim to recognize that it is editing a Makefile and do the right thing.
