And if you have an older Emacs version and do not upgrade you can bind SPC in
keymaps `minibuffer-local-completion-map' and `minibuffer-local-must-match-map'
to command `self-insert-command'. (The problem is that SPC is bound by default
to `minibuffer-complete-word' in those keymaps.)
(As Peter mentioned, if you do not want to fix this generally you can just use
`C-q SPC' whenever you need to insert a space char.)
