S-SPC is not being processed correctly when running Emacs -Q
(version 24.2 on Mac OS X 10.7.5 next step, installed via
homebrew --cocoa --srgb). Specifically, the shift modifier is being
dropped/ignored.  For example, doing

  (read-event)

followed by S-SPC returns 32, whereas with other modifiers of SPC
it does the correct thing. S-SPC does not appear to be being caught
and translated by any of the intervening translation maps
and the current-input-method is nil. Also, emacs 23.2 handles
S-SPC properly on the same machine, so the key sequence does not
appear to have been affected by the OS.

This is an issue for me because I use that sequence in several
modes, including icicles.

Thanks for your help.
