It means line 32 begins with a SPACE, not a TAB.  See section 22.16 of 
the DJGPP FAQ List.  It explains more about this; in particular, some 
oh-so-friendly editors change TABs to SPACEs even if you didn't modify 
the offending line.

Toss that editor and never use it again.  Find another one that doesn't 
modify anything except what you want it to change.
