The validator reports an error when it encounters spaces in the coords attribute of element area. See attached figure.
Surely, this must be wrong.

No, it's not wrong. That's what the spec requires:

http://www.whatwg.org/specs/web-apps/current-work/multipage/common-microsyntaxes.html#valid-list-of-integers

"A valid list of integers is a number of valid integers separated by U+002C COMMA characters, with no other characters (e.g. no space characters)."
