Summary: zile cannot put tabs in some files

Initial Comment:
If i use a new text file indent-tabs-mode seems to work fine (hex dump shows 
tabs, not spaces)

but when editing the rsnapshot config file (which is very sensitive to tabs vs. 
spaces) I cannot get get zile to insert a tab instead of spaces.

I've tried:
using a .zile file containing

(setq indent-tabs-mode t)

while working with the file
M-x set-variable
Set variable: indent-tabs-mode
Set indent-tabs-mode to value: t

I'm attaching the problem file.

I've just confirmed that if i put a series of -'s between
#exclude        ???
and 
exclude         *~
exclude         *.tmp

like this
#exclude        ???
-------------------------------
exclude *~
exclude *.tmp

zile correctly puts in a tab character, instead of spaces over the ???
above.

it's the exclude*~ and exclude*.tmp
that i can't fix with zile...
I am able to use emacs to get the tabs in there.
