Since your file is indented using tabs this is almost certainly another rule hit by jshint/jshint#3151, please follow that issue for updates on when this will get fixed.

If anyone is directed here and isn't using tabs to indent your file please file a new issue with a file to reproduce it on the JSHint repo, or file one here and I'll try to help you in getting one filed there where it can be fixed.

Thanks for taking the time to report this!

There are reports that if you set your indent property of your JSHint configuration to 1 this issue can be worked around. If you don't have a .jshintrc file the following should work:

{
  "indent": 1
}
