Yes that change is a real pain. I guess I need a space in a filename
about once or twice a year here in our Solaris/GNU Linux environment. I
wish there was an option to switch back to the original behavior or even
better this change would be the default for Microsoft users only.

Here's what I added to my .emacs file:

(if (>= emacs-major-version 22)
    (if partial-completion-mode
        (progn
          (define-key minibuffer-local-must-match-filename-map
            (kbd "SPC") 'PC-complete-word)
          (define-key minibuffer-local-filename-completion-map
            (kbd "SPC") 'PC-complete-word))
      (define-key minibuffer-local-must-match-filename-map
        (kbd "SPC") 'minibuffer-complete-word)
      (define-key minibuffer-local-filename-completion-map
        (kbd "SPC") 'minibuffer-complete-word)))
