Not sure who SC, but Oliver's response was to provide a patch for
_expand_alias which has now been added to the sources, so if you have
5.0.7 you should be able to make use of it.

zstyle ':completion:expand-alias-word:*' add-space false

The doc for the add-space style needs updating to mention
_expand_alias along with _prefix.
