Howdy,

I think I've found the problem: the % was missing after the \smash 
{ line in the definition of \LaTeX in xltxtra.sty. If you also want  
the definition of \XeLaTeX try substituting:

\newcommand*\TeXlogospacing[6]{%
   \DeclareRobustCommand\TeX{%
     \leavevmode
     \smash{%
       T\kern#1
       \lower#3\hbox{E}\kern#2 X}%
     \spacefactor1000\relax}
   \DeclareRobustCommand{\LaTeX}{%
     \leavevmode
     \smash{%
     L\kern#4%
     {\sbox\z@ T%
       \vbox to\ht\z@{\hbox{\check at mathfonts
         \fontsize\sf at size\z@
         \math at fontsfalse\selectfont
         A}%
       \vss}%
     }%
     \kern#5%
     \TeX}}
   \DeclareRobustCommand\XeTeX{%
     \leavevmode
     \smash{%
      X\lower #3
      \hbox{\kern #2
        \ifnum\XeTeXcharglyph"018E > 0
          \char"018E\relax
        \else\ifdim\fontdimen1\font=0pt
          \reflectbox{E}%
        \else % rotation is about the origin, so we need to adjust  
positioning
          \XeTeXuseglyphmetrics=1%
          \setbox0=\hbox{E}\dimen0=\ht0\advance\dimen0by\dp0%
          \raise\dimen0\hbox{\rotatebox{180}{\box0}}%
        \fi\fi
      }\kern#1\TeX}}
    \DeclareRobustCommand\XeLaTeX{%
     \leavevmode
     \smash{%
      X\lower #3
      \hbox{\kern #2
        \ifnum\XeTeXcharglyph"018E > 0
          \char"018E\relax
        \else\ifdim\fontdimen1\font=0pt
          \reflectbox{E}%
        \else % rotation is about the origin, so we need to adjust  
positioning
          \XeTeXuseglyphmetrics=1%
          \setbox0=\hbox{E}\dimen0=\ht0\advance\dimen0by\dp0%
          \raise\dimen0\hbox{\rotatebox{180}{\box0}}%
        \fi\fi
      }\kern#6\LaTeX}}}
\TeXlogospacing{-0.15em}{-0.15em}{0.5ex}{-0.36em}{-0.15em}{-0.10em}

for that definition and execution of \TeXlogospacing in xltxtra.sty.

Good Luck,
