I just tried

   % emacs23 -Q --eval "(add-hook 'sh-mode-hook (lambda () (setq indent-tabs-mode nil)))" test/indent/shell.sh

and C-h v indent-tabs-mode tells me it's nil in this buffer.
I suggest you add a (message "here I am") inside the above lambda (and
I also suggest you don't quote your lambdas with "'") to make sure it's
actually run.

No, but a binary search in your .emacs should quickly find the culprit.
