xgettext hanging

[William J Poser]

On my GNU/Linux system xgettext 0.13.1 hangs on the following line of Tcl/Tk
code (and any file containing it):

pack .re       -side top                     -fill x

The space between "top" and "-fill" consists of 9 spaces, a tab, and 5 more 
spaces.
The problem is eliminated if the tab is replaced by spaces:

pack .re       -side top                     -fill x

The behavior is the same with xgettext 0.14.1 under FreeBSD 5.3.
