[Richard Stallman]

John Wiegly, the maintainer of align.el, can't work on this now.
Can someone else please DTRT and ack?

Symptoms:

Visit the following buffer foo.txt in a fresh emacs (using text-mode)

cat > foo.txt <<EOF
Fred (123)   456-7890
Alice (123) 456-7890
Mary-Anne (123)     456-7890
Joe      (123) 456-7890
EOF

Set mark and point to beginning and end of the buffer.
Execute C-u M-x align. This gives me

Fred                            (123)           456-7890
                                Alice           (123)   456-7890
                                Mary-Anne       (123)   456-7890
                                Joe             (123)   456-7890

This is not what I would expect from an alignment command.
