Description:
Using native compilators on tru64unix 5.1a and irix 6.5.22 there are problems with indentation of preprocessor directives #ifdef, #else #elif and #endif. In some source files these directives are not beginning on the first column but are tabbed to another columns. This produces errors. The problem was already in previous versions of mysql, but I hadn|t the idea how to report bugs to mysql before.

At least the following files are affected:
./innobase/include/mem0mem.ic
./innobase/include/sync0rw.ic
./innobase/include/sync0sync.ic
./innobase/mem/mem0mem.c
./innobase/mem/mem0dbg.c
./innobase/sync/sync0rw.c
./innobase/sync/sync0sync.c

Not all preprocessor directives are affected in these files, but many of them.

How to repeat:
CC=cc ./configure ....
make

Suggested fix:
Please, remove the tab characters before '#' sign of the directives so the directives would begin in the first column.

Thanks. Heikki, these are all InnoDB files - can you please take a look 
at these and fix them, if appropriate? Thank you.
