In Eclipse 3.0, an instance of MessageConsole was automatically initialized 
with a default tab width of 8.

In Eclipse 3.1, an instance of MessageConsole doesn't have its tab width 
initialized at all and thus has a default of zero.

This is API breakage.

Either TextConsole (i.e. the new super-super class of MessageConsole that was 
introduced in 3.1) should initialize its fTabWidth field to 
IConsoleConstants.DEFAULT_TAB_SIZE (i.e. like the 3.0 version of 
MessageConsole initialized its tabWidth field to DEFAULT_TAB_SIZE) or the 
MessageConsole constructors should call setTabWidth() passing 
IConsoleConstants.DEFAULT_TAB_SIZE.
