I found it. I also forgot the "Dont purge spaces options", now 0.4.48
stores it in the desktop file.
Look for announces about CVS snap-shots.

I think here you felt victim of a very common issue:
The editor tries really hard to remmember what settings you use for each
file. The most common mechanism are through the closed files and the
project items. This information have precedence over the global options.
BTW: Newer versions have a very powerful mechanism to set up the which
global options you want to disable/enable for each syntax highlight.
Usually I enable Intelligent indent only for C and Perl, that's just an
example.
I tried with files the editor didn't know anything about and the settings
are correctly transferred (as the code pretends ;-)
