Note that this double spacing might have been triggered automatically by
an editor. I'm not sure that feature was available in Vi at that period,
but typically when using the join ('j') feature on "foo bar.\nbla", Vi(m)
will add two spaces after '.'.

You might want to complain to the Vim developers first, since it's likely
you will find all sort of double spacing in various other projects because
of this.
