The recipe isn't precise enough:

emacs -Q foo.mod
set SPC PROD SPC : SPC

Emacs hangs after the second SPC.  This bug is an old one, Emacs 24 has 
the same problem.  In fact an ever shorter recipe also works:

emacs -Q foo.mod
: SPC

You probably meant "debug-on-quit".  Here is the backtrace:

smie-default-backward-token()
m2-smie-refine-colon()
m2-smie-backward-token()
smie-blink-matching-open()
self-insert-command(1 32)
funcall-interactively(self-insert-command 1 32)
call-interactively(self-insert-command nil nil)
command-execute(self-insert-command)

And here is the patch.
