I have a Russian keyboard layout enable on an en_IE.UTF-8 locale. Here
are the lines from /etc/X11/xorg.conf:

Option          "XkbRules"      "xorg"
Option          "XkbModel"      "pc105"
Option          "XkbLayout"     "ie,ru"
Option          "XKbOptions"    "grp:alt_shift_toggle,grp_led:scroll"

All spaces entered in the Russian layout are non-breakable spaces; this is
seen in applications like iceweasel and openoffice.org . In the Irish layout
spaces are normal.

I have found a workaround; adding ",nbsp:none" to the XKbOptions line allows
me to work as normal.

Filing bug against xkb-data as this is probably a keyboard layout data issue.
In particular, I suspect it has to do with the following line in
/usr.share.x11.xkb.symbols:

key.type[group1]="TWO_LEVEL";
