Why does Gnu emacs indent this C code like this?  It is clearly not
what is wanted.  Is there a coding style or emacs variable that I need
to change?

{
	switch (bar(class, form)) {
	    case bar(CLASS_UNIV, FORM_STRING):
		    printf("got a string\n");
		    process_string();
		    break;
		case bar(CLASS_UNIV, FORM_INT):
			printf("got an int\n");
		    process_int();
		    break;
		case bar(CLASS_UNIV, FORM_TIME):
			printf("got a time\n");
		    process_time();
		    break;
		default:
		    printf("default\n");
		    break;
	    }
}


I have the following lines in my ~/.emacs files.

;;; indent c code by 8 spaces
(setq c-indent-level 8)
(setq c-continued-statement-offset 8)
(setq c-argdecl-indent 8)
(setq c-label-offset -4)

I am running a stock 18.41 Gnu emacs on a Sun running 3.4.
