Shouldn't you configure emacs to auto-detect tabs/spaces on the file you've opened?

Whoever is responsible should rename the files so their names end with ".mk" or ".make", the standard extensions that Emacs and other editors recognize.

Auto-detecting tabs/spaces sounds like magic, which not everyone likes.
