The '-3' command line option in Python 2.6 is supposed to warn whenever
encountering something that would throw an error in Python 3. Mixing of
tabs and spaces has become illegal in Python 3. However, Python 2.6,
called with '-3', passes silently over this unless '-t' was given, too.

Would it not be more consistent to let '-3' imply '-t'?
