Years ago I had to deal with a similar issue with a tool 
that removed "extraneous" white space from the .c 
source files.  I used a hack similar to the following
to work around the issue.

Perhaps the following hack could be used and would
have the benefit of being somewhat self-documenting:

#define DESIRED_SPACE " "

<snip>
   { 15, "Read Class Definition" DESIRED_SPACE },	
<snip>

During preprocessor/compilation the two adjacent 
strings ("Read Class Definition" and " ") will be 
concatenated together into a single string 
"Read Class Definition " that will contains the desired 
trailing space character.

Just a thought.
