I haven't tested it with `emacs -Q', sorry.  In not only that case
but also the case I launch emacs with no argument, I confirmed it
doesn't happen.  But at last I found a recipe to reproduce this:

(get-buffer-create "foo-bar")

That's all!

Could you try this on `emacs -Q'?  And you will see that the first
SPC for `C-x b' doesn't insert a space (I'm not quite sure if it
happens on every platform, though).
Maybe a buffer-name containing a hyphen triggers this problem.

Thanks.
