I'll see what I can come up with, but it probably won't be until
the weekend.

The trouble is that a lot of the pages in PmWiki group include
links with spaces in them, and every time a new release comes
out, you may get more. So it's probably best to fix the root
cause if possible, rather than patching existing pages.

Try 
$NamePattern   = '[\\w\\x80-\\xfe]+(?:[-~][\\w\\x80-\\xfe]+)*';
$PageNameChars = '-~[:alnum:]\\x80-\\xfe';

(based on scripts/xlpage-utf-8.php)
