 Line 211 in category-template.php (get_the_category_list() function)
 is:[[BR]]
 {{{$thelist .= $separator . ' ';}}}[[BR]]
 The line should instead be:[[BR]]
 {{{$thelist .= $separator . '';}}}

 When calling the_category(', '), the space is already manually included in
 current themes, creating a double space ',  ' between category names.
 This usually is not noticed since HTML automatically reduces the double
 space down to a single.

 However, a problem arises if you don't want any space, since calling
 the_category(',') will result in ', ' still being used as the delimiter.
