Around 200 *.[ch] files have tabs.  Here's the files with the most  
tabs for trunk and ruby_1_8.  Tabs are certainly heavily used.

$ pwd
/Users/drbrain/Work/svn/ruby/trunk
$ find . -name "*[ch]" | xargs grep -c '       '  | grep -v ':0' |  
awk -F ':' '{ print $2, $1 }' | sort -rn | head
5008 ./parse.c
4258 ./ext/ripper/ripper.c
3013 ./compile.c
2767 ./ext/syck/implicit.c
1529 ./win32/win32.c
1448 ./ext/syck/token.c
1374 ./ext/nkf/nkf-utf8/nkf.c
1277 ./pack.c
1196 ./string.c
942 ./ext/nkf/nkf-utf8/utf8tbl.c
$ pwd
/Users/drbrain/Work/svn/ruby/branches/ruby_1_8
$ find . -name "*[ch]" | xargs grep -c '       '  | grep -v ':0' |  
awk -F ':' '{ print $2, $1 }' | sort -rn | head
3822 ./eval.c
3391 ./parse.c
2767 ./ext/syck/implicit.c
1910 ./regex.c
1448 ./ext/syck/token.c
1372 ./win32/win32.c
1276 ./pack.c
1113 ./ext/nkf/nkf-utf8/nkf.c
1097 ./string.c
1096 ./io.c
