 I have users logging in via wp-login.php and then filling out a custom
 form with the last field entered being their WordPress password.

 One specific user can login fine to wp-login.php but when she enters
 information on the form and her WordPress password, validation fails on
 wp_check_password().

 I realized that her password contains a space at the end.

 By creating a brand new user and ensuring it contains a space the bug is
 evident with the test script I've uploaded.

 The version of the production site at the moment is 4.1.1 of where I first
 saw the bug, but I can reproduce this issue on a brand new WordPress
 install of 4.3.1 and from the github version currently at 4.5-alpha-35794.

 Looks like it's related to but different than ticket
