Bruce Momjian 04e15c69d2 Remove tabs after spaces in C comments
This was not changed in HEAD, but will be done later as part of a
pgindent run.  Future pgindent runs will also do this.

* The technique embodied here works if libc follows the Single Unix Spec
* and actually uses the storage passed to putenv() to hold the environ
* entry. When we clobber the entry in the second step we are ensuring
* that we zap the actual environ member. However, there are some libc
* implementations (notably recent BSDs) that do not obey SUS but copy the
* presented string. This method fails on such platforms. Hopefully all
* such platforms have unsetenv() and thus won't be using this hack. See:
* http://www.greenend.org.uk/rjk/2008/putenv.html
*
* Note that repeatedly setting and unsetting a var using this code will
* leak memory.
