Huh; interesting point.  Yes, it appears that they do:

g1-227(8.3-S)[12] ls -Fs icedtea-web-1.3/tests/reproducers/signed/Spaces\ can\ be\ everywhere\ signed/resources/
4 NotOnly spaces can kill ?????????? too signed.jnlp
4 Spaces can be everywhere1 signed.jnlp
4 Spaces can be everywhere2 signed.jnlp
4 SpacesCanBeEverywhere1signed.jnlp
4 spaces applet Tests signed.html
g1-227(8.3-S)[13] ls -Fs icedtea-web-1.3/tests/reproducers/simple/Spaces\ can\ be\ everywhere/resources/
4 NotOnly spaces can kill ?????????? too.jnlp
4 Spaces can be everywhere1.jnlp
4 Spaces can be everywhere2.jnlp
4 SpacesCanBeEverywhere1.jnlp
4 spaces applet Tests.html
g1-227(8.3-S)[14] 

(The files with names that display as having '?' in their names would be
the files in question.)

Hmmm.....  How do you do that?  :-}  Even trying a simple approach:

g1-227(8.3-S)[1] cd /usr/ports/java/icedtea-web/
g1-227(8.3-S)[2] sudo make
Password:
===>  License GPLv2 accepted by the user
===>  Found saved configuration for icedtea-web-1.2_2
===>  Extracting for icedtea-web-1.3
=> SHA256 Checksum OK for icedtea-web-1.3.tar.gz.

IMPORTANT: To build IcedTea-Web 1.3, you have to turn on 'ICEDTEA' option
for java/openjdk6 (default).  Otherwise, it will neither build nor work.

tar: Pathname in pax header can't be converted to current locale.
tar: Pathname in pax header can't be converted to current locale.
tar: Error exit delayed from previous errors.
*** Error code 1

Stop in /common/ports/java/icedtea-web.

I *suppose* I could try manually extracting it, then -- using the
observation that the files actually are extracted -- hack the work/.*
files to convince the ports infrastructure that the extraction is
already completed OK, but that's just... wrong.

Thanks for your help so far!

Peace,
