I can confirm this with latest svn. I take a quick look at the code, but couldn't figure where the stripping happens and I hope other experts to step in.
While I think you're not using usetex mode, you may use tex's own spacing command with usetex mode. Depending on your need, you may also use the annotate function with which you can provide a spacing in pixel coordinate (or other coordinate the annotate supports).
