[XeTeX] minor bug within XeLaTeX

[Michiel Kamermans]

Hi Pablo,

> endobj
For comparison, if I look at the pdf files that I get from xelatex 
(generated on windows) I get the following:

2 0 obj
<<
/Creator( XeTeX output 2010.01.09:1939)
/Producer(MiKTeX-xdvipdfmx \(0.7.7 svn texlive 15080\))
/CreationDate(D:20100109193908+01'00')
 >>
endobj

Examining the hex code shows no spaces, but line feeds (ascii code 10, 
hex 0A):

Is it possible that the tool you're using to read the pdf's data does 
syntactic replacements? What does a hex editor/viewer say the pdf contains?
