I believe you.  I just don't see this in the GNU/Linux system where I
tried this (and also on MS-Windows, FWIW).  In my testing the file
names remain intact after "C-x C-q", including the space characters.

So either the recipe is not complete, or I somehow didn't follow it
100%, or something else is at work on your system that doesn't happen
on mine.  Thus my question whether someone else sees that who could
then debug the problem.
