Apparently I was too fast - while first-level preformatted areas no
longer have the unwanted whitespace, deeper levels still have it, see
again the attached files.

I tried to also set @paragraphindent to 0, but this didn't work. Is
there anything else I could set here?

I guess its visually pleasing to indent HTML output, but at least for
indenting preformatted contents its harmful. A good rule of thumb here
should be "indent the elements, not the contents" wherever possible,
because somebody might simple want to render another element (not only
@example or @smallexample) with a fixed width and would run into the
same problems.
