1. emacs -Q
2. Open new buffer "bug"
3. Enter a few spaces or newlines, but buffer is otherwise empty
4. M-: (thing-at-point 'word) -> Result is string with white space "   "

The things `word`, `sexp`, `defun`, `sentence` are also affected.

On Emacs 27, (thing-at-point 'symbol) returns returns also a string with
white space only, but this has been fixed apparently in Emacs 28.
