Unless I am missing something the fact that C. doesn't lead to an end of
sentence is unrelated to whether it is in @w or not. An upper case
letter before a . never ends a sentence, as is in TeX.
End of sentence, and thus doubling of space in @w is indeed recognized
in @w. I didn't find it in archive, but I recall discussing that with
Karl. My very vague recalling is that it was to be consistent with TeX.
