If it doesn't have special support for these keys, then what you see makes perfect sense to me: those keys return 2 bytes when read: the first byte is 0 and the second is the key scan code. If Emacs only sees the first 0, then it thinks you typed a key whose code is ASCII 0, which is Ctrl-SPACE or Ctrl-@.
