I haven't seen this in a long time, and the testcases pass since they
now use .comm instead of .space.  I meant to keep the PR open to
investigate why gcc would emit code like this, but I think it can now be
closed, especially given that IRIX support will be removed in 4.8.

Is this still an issue?

I've now managed to distill a test case:

int
test (void)
{
  static unsigned long noarro1 [] = { };
}

% ../xgcc -B../ -c space0.i 
/var/tmp//cc3uQnef.s: Assembler messages:
/var/tmp//cc3uQnef.s:8: Warning: .space repeat count is zero, ignored

Not yet: I've just posted the bug report so the issue isn't forgotten.

Did you happen to catch where the .space 0 were being emitted from?
