The following "fix" applies to Netbeans 6.0.1.
Tools -> Options -> Editor -> Indentation (and you will need to go to "Advanced options" as well).
Set:
Expand Tabs to Spaces: Unchecked
Number of Spaces per Indent: 3 (on the main page - and for all indentation engines)
Tab Size: 4
And you get the functionality that you (and I) are looking for :)
This one annoyed me for over an hour today!

correction - there are cases where what I just said doesn't work properly :( sorry.
