That's typically the example given in the doc that use
  \set Timing.measureLength = #(ly:make-moment 3 4)

Then no problem of extra whitespace!

\relative c'' {
  \repeat volta 2 {
    \partial 4 b4
    c c c c | c c c c
  }
  \alternative {
    {
      c4 c c c |
      \set Timing.measureLength = #(ly:make-moment 3 4)
      b b b4
    }
    {
      \set Timing.measureLength = #(ly:make-moment 4 4)
      c4 c c c |
      d d d d
    }
  }
}

Xavier
