emacs -Q

In emacs-lisp-mode, do this:

(set (make-local-variable 'lisp-indent-function)
     'common-lisp-indent-function)

In Emacs 20, this Emacs-Lisp sexp indents correctly (IMO) to this, using
`C-M-q':

(toto beg end
      `(foo     ,bar
        keymap      ,map
        mouse-face  highlight
        help-echo   "jjjjjjjjjjjjjjjjjjjj"))

Starting with Emacs 22, it indents to this, which is bad (IMO):

(toto beg end
      `(foo     ,bar
                keymap      ,map
                mouse-face  highlight
                help-echo   "jjjjjjjjjjjjjjjjjjjj"))

If this is really what Emacs Dev prefers (why?), can you please let me
know a simple way to get the Emacs 20 indentation instead?
