Indeed, I did, that's how I found the testcase that needed changing

One could argue that since it is valid as is it isn't missing a space
(In fact that is what I was thinking.). If it were missing something
that would imply something was wrong. . . In any case I'll drop the
'not' and commit shortly since I don't feel strongly either way.

This reminds me of another minor inconsistency. When subversion writes
unexpanded keywords it writes them like '$keyword: $'. It adds a
colon and a space. Is there a reason that subversion doesn't unexpand
keywords to '$keyword$'? Since the documentation describes unexpanded
keywords as '$keyword$' that would be the more obvious choice, IMO.
