dmenu2 xft-font blank width spacing bug?

Hi,

if I launch dmenu2 with an xft-font specified (via `-fn 'Monospace-13'` for example), I experience the following:

When I type something, every blank after a letter is incredibly narrow or worse just invisible. This only affects the blanks directly after a letter or if the first character is a blank anyway; the following blanks now just have the normal width.

Can someone confirm this issue? (To reproduce, just launch dmenu2 with an xft-font specified and hit space several times or try write letters/words with blanks in between)

Thanks!

Sorry for bumping, but aren't there really any dmenu2 users around who are willing to invest a couple of seconds to tell me wether this is actually a bug or a classic pebkac? I simply don't want to annoy the developper straightaway if it's just me making ridiculous mistakes...
