It is necessary.  The white space is syntactical separation
between the procedure name ("_") and the argument(s) (the string,
in this case).  You cannot remove the white space because the
syntax requires it.

Indeed, this is why we generate guile-strings.c.   Our "make pot"
rule deals with all this.  I suppose we could attempt to include
guile-strings.c in SVN as well if you really can't work with what
we've already got.
