After you suggested it I tried, but this causes an error during  
typesetting.
Missing $ inserted.
<inserted text>
                 $
l.34 ...blem\ dbase/PA_fit_speed/PA_fit_speed.tex}


In case I was not clear earlier, the space in my example does not  
interfere with typesetting, only with synchronization (and in  
particular, pdf-to-source synchronization).
