If they had properly fixed the kernel, I am pretty sure they would have made some mention of it somewhere????
The extraneous spaces are caused by the justification algorithm. It is annoying. I will be explaining this to Jinke today. The spaces are caused by things like ' and " and a few other characters being considered as legal places to insert a space. Of course this is not the case. They also have a terrible algorithm for hyphenation. I don't think it is for English.
