Ah, true. I use Emacs 22.2 (as packaged by Debian) and only checked that
Emacs 23 uses the same regexp. Hence I assumed that it had the same
problem. Now I tried some quite up-to-date development version of Emacs
23 and it produces

    f o o  b a r

instead. So no infinite looping there. I think the result is not what
user expects, though. I'd still suggest changing the default regexp to
match one or more whitespaces: \s-+
