M-x untabify, perhaps? :)

Yes, but it works if the person writing the code untabify's prior
to saving, which I believe was the point Walt was trying to make.
For vi, ":%!expand -4" works nicely to accomplish the same thing.
Also, anyone writing code which uses ASCII, non-8 tabstops should
be indicating their tab preferences at the top of the file, either
with a "vi:set ts=4:", "-*- tab-width: 4 -*-", or other equivalent.
