It seems the French Spacing consists in a space between last word in a
sentence and ending punctuation, and only one space between sentences.
If I've got it right, then it doesn't apply to Portuguese. We normally
use no space between last word and ending punctuation, and also only
one space between sentences.

Thanks for the suggestion, though.

Testing the info output, it shows " *note <link>:: " (where <link> is
the target link. Is this the same you see in not using “see @ref{…}” ?
