well, the PDF ref. says to strip the spaces, and i don't
know what consequences such underscores would have. So it
seems that just stripping spaces might be a little bit
closer to the right thing (in the view that this is only
with buggy fonts anyway).

why not replace spaces by underscore (just as a precaution)

patch makes pdftex lenient with (buggy) TTF fonts that have
spaces in PostScript name, strips spaces in /BaseFont and
/FontName, e. g.: "MS Song" ---> "MSSong"

ah, after the PDF reference 5. ed. page 388 in case there
would be no PostScript name entry we could be cruesome and
strip the blank. But there is a wrong PostScript name in the
font. So maybe one could flag a warning (or not?) and just
strip the blank? (which would be easy)

This mssong.ttf version seems to be buggy. Here is a
diagnostic printout from function ttf_read_name() in
writettf.c; these are all available entries from the "Naming
Table":
i=0 platform_id=1 encoding_id=0 name_id=0 name <(c)

i=1 platform_id=1 encoding_id=0 name_id=1 name <MS Song>
i=2 platform_id=1 encoding_id=0 name_id=2 name <Regular>
i=3 platform_id=1 encoding_id=0 name_id=3 name
