Comment (by dappelman):

 I can reproduce this on my live site, which is a multisite install through
 the admin section, so it's not a matter of a user typing in the wrong
 username.

 If I have two users:

 1234 (user 1)
 6789 (user1)

 And I click wp-
 admin/users.php?action=resetpassword&users=1234&_wpnonce=xxxxxxx

 It sets the user_activation_key for id 6789.

 I wonder if there is any relation to this old ticket, since technically
 spaces should be sanitized from multi-site installs, but our site was
 converted to multisite quite a while after the site was started:
