I'm not a fan of using offsets of 4, and the existing code
uses offsets of 2, so I'd prefer to keep that.

This is what I have in my .emacs now:

(defun libguestfs-c-mode ()
  "C mode with adjusted defaults for use with libguestfs."
  (interactive)
  (setq indent-tabs-mode nil) ; indent using spaces, not TABs
  )
(add-hook 'c-mode-hook
          '(lambda () (if (string-match "/libguestfs" (buffer-file-name))
                          (libguestfs-c-mode))))

Rich.
