I just tried it on the ubuntu karmic emacs23 packages.  I get the same
behaviour i was seeing before.  In case my description is misleading, i
just made a couple of screenshots and posted them here: 
http://www.derailleur.org/screenshots/ 
one shows some quick text when indent-mode is enabled, the other shows
it with indent-mode disabled. 

anyway if you have any ideas how i might help that'd be great --
bisecting the code is probably beyond what i can easily do but i could
try to dig around a bit somehow.  

thanks - i appreciate how much effort you put into this carsten! -
