Hi,
The default next-error function doesn't seem to parse grep hits where
filenames contain embedded spaces.
Does anybody has a fix for this?

Actually, it does (Emacs 21.3).

Just remove any space characters that occur within [^...] in the REGEXP
portion of grep-regexp-alist.

You're right. It works after I removed this old setting in my .emacs:
(setq grep-regexp-alist
'(("^\\([a-zA-Z]:?[^:(\t\n]+\\)[:( \t]+\\([0-9]+\\)[:) \t]" 1 2))))
Thanks.
