[BIB] Extra space before surname

[BIB] Extra space before surname

[Giuseppe Bilotta]

Hello,

I just noticed that there is an extra space before the
surname if there is no "von" part.

My setup:

\def\bracketed#1{[#1]}

\usemodule[bib]
\setupbibtex[database={mrabbrev,bezier}]
\setuppublications[numbering=yes,
                   sorttype=cite,
                   criterium=all,
                   numbercommand=\bracketed,
                   refcommand=num]
\setupcite[num][left={\start\bf[},right={]\stop}]

Sounds like a familiar bug. Please try this (and let me
know if it works or not):

   \usemodule[bib]
   %
   % next 3 lines hopefully fix a bug
   %
   \let\bibdoif          \doifnotemptyvalue
   \let\bibdoifnot       \doifemptyvalue
   \def\bibdoifelse#1#2#3{\doifemptyvalueelse{#1}{#3}{#2}}

Looks like something else is needed:

Yeah, that's wrong all right.  :-(

How is this?

  \def\invertedshortauthor#1#2#3#4#5%
   {\doifnotempty{#2}{#2\bibalternative\c!vonsep}%
    #3\bibalternative\c!surnamesep
    \doifnotempty{#5}{#5\bibalternative\c!juniorsep}%
    \doifnotempty{#4}{#4\unskip}}

(we slowly are getting to the point where it is easier on you to
  send me the actual document and a list of errors in t-bib :))

please.
